Abstract
1. 1. Stressed young salmon fed a diet containing 10 per cent glycine show higher liver glycogen than others fed the basic diet without the added glycine. 2. 2. A cellular amino acid imbalance from the high glycine intake is proposed with l-tyrosine, one of the limiting amino acids. 3. 3. When l-tyrosine is prefed with the glycine diet liver glycogen is the same as in fish prefed the basic diet. 4. 4. It is postulated that cellular amino acids in a deficiency of l-tyrosine are not utilizable for protein biosynthesis, and the deaminated chains of several are available for carbohydrate formation. Feeding l-tyrosine corrects this.
