. The Biological bulletin. Biology; Zoology; Biology; Marine Biology. Ip Alanine life Arginine Giycine £y Glutamic Taurine. ARCA VOLSELLA CRASSOSTREA FIGURE 4. Estimated concentration of six amino acids in the tissues of three pelecypods: Area umbonata, Volsella demissus granosissimus and Crassostrea virginica. which were found invariably in the species studied. The most striking feature is the high concentration of taurine and glycine in nearly all species studied. The glycine concentration is in many cases equal to that of taurine. The highest concentration of taurine was found in Penaeits actccus, but our value is still con- siderably lower than the value reported for Mytilus editlis. The mode of formation of taurine in invertebrates is not known at all. In mammals it is formed from cysteine after oxidation to cysteine sulfinic acid and decarboxylation of the latter.
