Abstract: Trace nutrients and fat, as important nutrients for animal metabolism, are vital for the growth and development of animals.Importantly, they can regulate gene expression in different ways and levels.The alteration of animal gene expression can affect the animal's nutritional requirements and growth performance by changing the nutrient metabolic pathway and efficiency.With the development of animal nutrition and molecular biology, the mechanism of nutrients regulating gene expression is gradually revealed.In this paper, the effects of trace nutrients and fat regulating gene expression were reviewed aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the determining of animal nutrients requirement more accurately and scientifically.In addition, the application prospects of nutrients regulating gene expression were also discussed.

Key words: trace nutrients; fat; gene expression; regulation mechanism
