| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The nutritional requirements in freshwater fish and marine fish were quite different. Especially, the requirement of essential fatty acid and taurine which is amino acid related compounds is different. Thus the structural analyses for gene of cystein sulfinic acid decarboxylase which relates taurine synthesis was conducted in red sea bream, yellowtail, sea bass, and barfin flounder. And the expression in each organ and tissues were also determined. The expression in liver and pyloric caecum was strong. The influence of the dietary docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and taurine and the salinity of ambient salinity on the expression of the gene of synthetic enzyme of DHA and taurine was determined with Japanese flounder. It was demonstrated that the expression of the gene for the synthesis of DHA and taurine was influenced by the content of DHA and taurine in live food and the change of salinity.
