Abstract
During cleavage stages in Xenopus laevis the concentrations of free glutamic acid and glutamine increase, while that of free aspartic acid decreases. It is argued that glutamic acid and glutamine may accumulate as intermediates during the mobilisation of nitrogen from storage reserves, while the decrease in aspartic acid may be due to exchanges with nucleotides.
