Protein synthesis

Milk---casein and few of -lactalbumin, -lactoglobulin

Occurred in endoplasmic reticulum and rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER)

Substrates are AA: diet and microbial protein

Protein product was storaged in golgiMechanism protein synthesis similar to other organs

FA synthesis

Occurred at smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER)

triacylglyceride is major productStorage in alveolus FA received from:

Diet: intake, synthesis from C2, C4Mobilization from adipose tissue

Milk synthesis control

Brisken and O'Malley (2010)

Conclusion

1

2

Protein synthesis from diet and microbes

Lactose synthesis with 7 steps

3FA synthesis as triacylglycerol by use VFA, diet as substrate
