Inadequate dietary protein is still a
major world problem
Two-year old child with kwashiorkor,
before and two weeks after start of
treatment with good protein.
Which is before and which is after?
KWASHIORKOR - protein deficiency but adequate calories. Described in 1930s
as “sickness of older child when new baby is born”, in language of Ga tribe of
gold coast (now Ghana). Characteristic edema.

Protein malnutrition, continued
FAMINE EDEMA
Cause: inadequate synthesis of plasma proteins, especially albumin, so
that osmotic pressure is not maintained and fluid escapes into tissues.
Body water in extracellular space is increased relative to body weight.
Extracellular water:
Normal ~23.5%
Kwashiokor ~30%

Protein malnutrition, continued
Protein-Energy Malnutrition,
Aka Marasmus, Protein-Calorie Deficiency,
starvation. Other nutrients (vitamins and
minerals) are also likely to be deficient.
Starvation is usually the result of war, civil
strife, drought, locusts. It especially affects
infants and children; growth is slowed,
infections and other diseases are common.

Protein malnutrition, continued
Such extreme forms of malnutrition are rare in US, but protein deficiency can
occur among:
• Pregnant and lactating women, unless they increase their protein intake.
• Individuals with eating disorders (bulimia, anorexia).
• Elderly and chronically ill individuals who have lost
interest in eating.
• Chronic alcoholics and substance abusers.
• Hospital patients with major protein needs and limited capacity for intake
(e.g, post-surgery, severe burn victims).
• Patients with genetic disorders in amino acid absorption or metabolism.
5
Dietary protein is the source of
essential amino acids
Dietary proteins provide the amino acids that humans cannot
synthesize - the “essential” amino acids. The “non-essential” amino
acids can be synthesized endogenously from intermediates of
glycolysis or the TCA cycle.
Essential
Arginine (for children only)
Histidine
Isoleucine
Leucine
Lysine
Methionine
Phenylalanine
Threonine
Tryptophan
Valine
Non-essential

How much protein do we need?
• In contrast to fat and glucose, there is no significant storage pool for
amino acids; we must consume protein daily.
• Requirement for protein depends on age, sex, activity.
• Proteins differ in content of essential amino acids as well as
digestibility. Diets that rely on a single source of protein may be out of
balance with our nutritional needs.

Dietary protein is
first hydrolyzed to
amino acids, then
rebuilt into
endogenous
protein by
translation.

Digestion
• Mouth: chewing, degradation of starch by amylase make proteins more
accessible.
• Stomach: acid pH denatures proteins; activates pepsinogen to cleave itself
to pepsin, which initiates proteolysis.
• Pancreas (exocrine): secretion of trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen,
proelastase, procarboxypeptidase (inactive proenzymes)
• Duodenum: peptides from pepsin action stimulate release of cholecystekinin
(pancreozymin). Cholecystekinin stimulates release of pancreatic proenzymes and of enteropeptidase, a protease secreted by cells of the
duodenum.
10
Digestion
• Duodenum: enteropeptidase activates trypsinogen to trypsin. Trypsin
activates the other proteases, each of which has different specificity. Dietary
proteins converted to peptides and free amino acids.
• Small intestine: larger peptides are degraded on the surface of intestinal
epithelial cells, which absorb amino acids and small (di- and tri-) peptides.
Cytoplasmic peptidases complete conversion of peptides to amino acids,
which can enter the circulation.

Deaminasi Oksidatif:
 Pemecahan Glutamat menjadi amonia
dan regenerasi α-ketoglutarat
 Membutuhkan enzim glutamat
dehidrogenase
 α-ketoglutarat digunakan kembali dalam
reaksi transaminasi

digunakan untuk sintesis asam amino baru,
sintesis nukleotida, atau senyawa amino lain
(porfirin, dll)

urea (pada primata) melalui siklus urea
Reaksi siklus urea

kondensasi CO2 dengan amonia → karbamoil fosfat
2 : Ornitin transkarbamoilase
kondensasi ornitin dengan karbamoil fosfat → sitrulin
3 : Argininosuksinat sintetase
Kondensasi sitrulin dengan aspartat → argininosuksinat

METABOLISME NUKLEOTIDA
Metabolisme Nukleotida
