The total daily protein load is ∼70–100 g of dietary protein and 35–200 g of endogenous proteins, including the digestive enzymes and dead cells (6). carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, minerals and water and these are collectively termed as nutrients. Colipase also prevents the inactivation of lipase by the bile salts. Most lipids are transported in the blood as triacylglycerols within lipoprotein (particles containing a core of hydrophobic lipids surrounded by a shell of proteins, phospholipids and cholesterol). Medium chain triacylglycerols with fatty acids containing less than 10 to 12 carbons. Identifying the specific transporters found in specific locations in the small intestine for amino acid uptake has been difficult due to species differences. The mature chylomicrons exit the Golgi complex in large transport vesicles containing multiple chylomicrons for exocytosis across the basolateral membrane. The presence of fat in the duodenum leads to the stimulation of pancreatic enzyme secretion (including lipases and esterases) and contraction of the gallbladder with relaxation of the hepatopancreatic sphincter to release bile.

These starch hydrolysis products must be further broken down by the disaccharidases found as membrane-spanning enzymes in the plasma membranes of the brush borders of intestinal epithelial cells (enterocytes) (4).

The chylomicron precursors merge in the SER to form lipid particles with neutral lipid cores and the two apoproteins, which buds from the SER surrounded by a membrane into a prechylomicron transport vesicle (PCTV). Both salivary and pancreatic α-amylases are endosaccharidases that are specific for internal α-1,4 glycosidic bonds (6). Hartnup disease was first discovered in the Hartnup family (9) and presents as defective intestinal and renal transport of neutral amino acids involving system B transporters (4). of South Dakota, 414 E.
