Amino acids are now recognised as having multiple cellular functions in addition to their traditional role as constituents of proteins. This is well-illustrated in the early mammalian embryo where amino acids are now known to be involved in intermedi...

Metabolic regulation during early embryo development (2015)
Thesis
McKeegan, P. Metabolic regulation during early embryo development. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4216544

The preimplantation embryo must satisfy dynamic changes in energy demand during development to the blastocyst stage. Energy is provided through regulated metabolic pathways including glycolysis, β-oxidation and oxidative phosphorylation. Oxygen consu...
