Regulation of skeletal muscle amino acid metabolism during exercise.
Abstract
The contribution of amino acid oxidation to total energy expenditure is negligible during short-term intense exercise and accounts for 3-6% of the total adenosine triphosphate supplied during prolonged exercise in humans. While not quantitatively important in terms of energy supply, the intermediary metabolism of several amino acids-notably glutamate, alanine, and the branched-chain amino acids-affects other metabolites, including the …
