| protein channel |
a watery pathway through the interstices of a protein molecule by which ions and small molecules can cross a membrane into or out of a cell by diffusion; protein channels play a vital role in depolarization and repolarization of nerve and muscle fibers, and may have physical characteristics such as shape or diameter that particularly attract certain ions.

| protein catabolic r. |
a calculation derived by multiplying 6.25 times the amount of nitrogen in grams excreted in the urine over a given time period; this represents the amount of protein catabolized by the body in excess of protein synthesis. In a healthy steady state of nitrogen balance it approximates the amount of protein in the diet.
