What are the main functions of amino acids in animal body?4 answersAmino acids have diverse functions in the animal body. They serve as substrates for protein synthesis and participate in the synthesis of various low-molecular-weight substances. Amino acids also play important roles in regulating gene expression, cell signaling, food intake, nutrient digestion and absorption, neurological development and behavior, energy and nutrient metabolism, immunity, reproduction, hormone secretion, anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory responses, detoxification, acid-base and mineral balances, osmolarity, and overall homeostasis. They are involved in the regulation of gene expression through mechanisms such as transcription, translation, posttranscriptional modifications, and epigenetic regulation. Amino acids are also essential for metabolic cascades, cell signaling pathways, and the synthesis of proteins, as well as for anti-inflammatory responses, cell survival, growth, and development. Additionally, amino acids and their derivatives have intracellular functions as energy sources and substrates for functional catabolites, as well as extracellular functions as immunotransmitters. Amino acids are crucial for the growth, development, and functions of sense organs, including the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin.
