Relative mRNA and protein expression in abdominal fat of Pekin ducks in Met-deficient and Met-adequate groups. Results are presented as means with plus error bars (standard deviation). Results are presented as means with plus error bars (standard deviation). Differences were assessed by Student’s t test (n = 6) and denoted as follows: * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001. Met-D, Met-deficient; Met-A, Met-adequate; A-FABP (FABP4), Fatty acid-binding protein, adipose; ACBP, Acyl-CoA-binding protein; FATP5, Fatty acid transport protein 5; LPL, Lipoprotein lipase; ATGL, Adipose triacylglyceride lipase; FAT/CD36, Fatty acid translocase; HSL, Hormone-sensitive lipase; p-HSL-S563, Phosphor-hormone-sensitive lipase at Ser563
