Abstract

1. 1. Amino acid transport across the intestine of bivalve molluscs is reviewed. 2. 2. Transport of alanine or taurine is dependent on the sodium gradient across the intestine. 3. 3. The time course of the uptake of alanine into the brush border membrane vesicles is also sodium dependent.
