Introduction Creatine (essential for energy metabolism) and glutathione (GSH; an important non-enzymatic antioxidant) are major metabolites of glycine [the simplest amino acid (AA)] in animals (Fig. 1). Specifically, arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) and guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase (GAMT) convert glycine into creatine in the presence of arginine and methionine, whereas γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase catalyze the formation of GSH...

Introduction Early fish development is the most important thing that should be known before producing any seeds, especially in the new cultured species or strain. Generally, early development is divided into egg, larvae and juvenile, whereas mostly fish embryos develop from transparent eggs [1] . According to Kendall et al. [2], the egg stage is divided into early, middle and late subdivisions, which end with blastopore closure, freeing of the tail bud from the yolk, and...
