Abstract

Milk protein synthesis is a process that consumes essential amino acids (EAA) and energy. Adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important molecule in AMPK signaling pathway, which can maintain its energy balance through the way of feeling cellular energy state with the aim of providing sufficient energy for milk protein synthesis. Mammalian target rapamycin (mTOR) is an important downstream target in AMPK signaling pathway by that EAA mainly mediated milk protein synthesis. This review summarized regulatory roles of energy and EAA through AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway in process of milk protein synthesis.

Key words: AMPK; mTOR; EAA; energy; milk protein
