• Nitrogenous feed component, non-protein nitrogen components, endogenous– Ammonia for bacterial growth– Amino acids (AA) for animal needs (absorbed in
small intestine)

Protein Degradation in the Rumen
Feed proteins Peptides Amino acids
•Undegraded feed proteins•Escaped feed proteins•“Bypass proteins”
Enzymes from protozoa and bacteria•Many species of bacteria involved•Bacterial enzymes are extracellular•Enzymes not in cell free rumen fluid•Both exopeptidase and endopeptidase activity
Assumption in CNCPS: Enzymes (microorganisms) in excess – substrate limited
![Page 11: Protein Metabolism I ANS 520. Topics Amino acid metabolism Microbial protein contributions Ruminal N digestion](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061610/5697bfc91a28abf838ca8cb0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Factors Affecting Ruminal Protein Degradation
•Chemical nature of the proteins• Solubility – More soluble proteins degraded faster
•Exceptions might include •egg ovalbumin, serum proteins
• 3-dimensional structure – Affects solubility & availability• Chemical bonding
•Disulfide bonds – Reduces degradation
![Page 12: Protein Metabolism I ANS 520. Topics Amino acid metabolism Microbial protein contributions Ruminal N digestion](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061610/5697bfc91a28abf838ca8cb0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Factors Affecting Ruminal Protein Degradation
• Physical barriers• Cell walls of plants• Cross linking of peptide chains – Reduces
degradation• Aldehydes, Tannins
• Feed intake• Rate of passage – Time proteins remain in the rumen
• Feed processing• Rate of passage• Heat damage – Complexes with carbohydrates

Estimating Ruminal Protein Degradation
1. In situ digestion Feed placed in Dacron bags suspended in the rumen Measure protein lost over time
2. Cannulated animals (rumen & duodenum) Measure protein flowing through duodenum Need to differentiate feed from microbes
3. In vitro incubation with rumen microbes Relative differences among proteins
4. In vitro digestion with fungal enzymes

Fate of Free Amino Acids in the Rumen
• Amino acids not absorbed from the rumen• Concentrations of free AA in the rumen very low
• Amino acids and small peptides (up to 5 AA) transported into bacterial cells
• Na pumped out of cells – Uses ATP• Na gradient facilitates transport of AA by a carrier
• Utilized for synthesis of microbial proteins• Amino acids metabolized to provide energy

Control of Amino Acid Fermentation
When CHOH is ample for growth, incorporationof amino acids into protein is favored
• Majority of transported amino acids and peptides do not go through ammonia pool
When CHOH supply is limiting growth, aminoacids are fermented for energy
• There is an increase in amino acids going through the ammonia pool
![Page 27: Protein Metabolism I ANS 520. Topics Amino acid metabolism Microbial protein contributions Ruminal N digestion](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061610/5697bfc91a28abf838ca8cb0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Microbial Protein Synthesis
•End product of protein degradation is mostly NH3
•Protein synthesis•Fixation of N in organic form•Synthesis of amino acids•Synthesis of protein(s)

Microbial RequirementsBacteria
Nitrogen• Mixed cultures
NH3 satisfies the N requirementCross feeding can supply amino acids
• Pure culturesFiber digesters require NH3
Starch digesters require NH3 and amino acidsPeptides can be taken up by cells
Branched-chain fatty acids• Required by major rumen cellulolytic bacteria
Energy from fermentation• Need energy for synthesis of macromolecules
![Page 34: Protein Metabolism I ANS 520. Topics Amino acid metabolism Microbial protein contributions Ruminal N digestion](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061610/5697bfc91a28abf838ca8cb0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Role of Protozoa
•Do not use NH3 directly
•Engulf feed particles and bacteria• Digest proteins• Release amino acids and peptides into rumen• Use amino acids for protein synthesis• Protozoa engulf bacteria• Protozoa lyse easily – May contribute little microbial protein to the animal

Microbial Growth in The Rumen
Nutrients available to microbes1. DIP - NH3, peptides, amino acids
• CNCPS adjusts for inadequate available N
2. Energy from the fermentation• Growth rate related to Kd of CHOH• Quantity of cells related to CHOH digested
CNCPS assumes microbes digestingnon-fiber and fiber CHOH both havea maximum yield of 50g cells/100gCHOH fermented
3. Other - branched-chain acids, minerals
