Abstract: Taurine is an abundant amino acid essential to various physiological functions in many organisms; however, invertebrate taurine biosynthesis pathways are largely unknown. Here, we investigated the activities of taurine biosynthesis enzymes, cysteinesulfinic acid decarboxylase (CSD),… read more here.
