Taurine: an Amino Acid Rich in Fish Meal
Research Scientist1, Oceanic Institute, 41-202 Kalanianaole Hwy. 1Retired. Current address, 113 Wooddale, Euless, TX 76039, USA
Abstract

Taurine is a sulfur containing amino acid and is unique in that it is not linked to any protein by a peptide bond.
Taurine is the most abundant free amino acid in any tissue. Taurine is found in greater concentration in aquatic
foods than in land animal foods and consequently higher in fish meal than in meat meal. Taurine is a conditionally
essential amino acid and is either derived from food/feed or biosynthesized in the liver. The most common pathway
for taurine biosynthesis is by the conversion of cysteine to taurine mediated by the enzyme cysteine sulfinic acid
decarboxylase. Physiological functions for taurine include neuromodulation, cardiac calcium ion modulation,
hypolipedemic and hypocholestremic, bile synthesis, osmoregulation, detoxicant and many others. Very little
information on taurine is available on the nutritional requirement and or its biosynthetic ability in aquatic species.
Understanding taurine nutrition is essential to minimize or eliminate the need for fish meal in feeds, a byproduct
whose world supply is constrained by demand from rapid aquaculture development. Knowledge of
nutrition/biosynthesis in various aquatic species may play a key role in the future development of organic
aquaculture farming and in the taxonomy of aquatic species.

Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, +NH
3CH2CH2SO3 ) is unique in that it is not linked to any protein by a peptide bond and taurine is not a constituent of any protein. Taurine is the most
abundant free amino acid in many tissues. Physiological role of taurine has been extensively
researched but source of taurine in various foods has been relatively neglected. Aquatic foods
are a major source of taurine in human nutrition. Conches, blood clams and cuttlefish had
taurine levels as high as 500-900 mg in 100 g of the fresh edible portion. Fish had varied taurine
content, which were relatively high in rays and flat fish (280-320 mg/100 g fresh edible portion)
relatively low in silver pomfret, yellow croaker and baby croaker (40-90 mg/100 g edible fresh
edible portion). Natural and cultivated prawns had 100 mg in 100 g fresh edible portion. These
authors (Zhao et al., 1998) analyzed fresh edible portions of around 30 species of aquatic
products for their taurine content as food. These authors found that sea foods contain 0.5 – 1%
taurine compared to meats for e.g. Chicken legs contain only around 0.38% taurine. Strangely
chicken legs contain 10 times more taurine that chicken breasts. Milk and vegetables contain
practically little taurine and a species of beans is known to contain around 0.0005% taurine.
Taurine has been touted as a constituent of health food products, examples of which are the
health drink Lipovitan, a taurine containing drink Red Bull is marketed as an aid to athletic
performance, taurine containing products are marketed in North America for the treatment of
epilepsy, hyperactivity (Calm-Kids) substance abuse (Crave-Away). Not an advertisement for
any of these products is intended. Taurine is used as a nutritional supplement and aquatic foods
are a major source of taurine in human nutrition (Zhao et al., 1998).
Taurine biosynthesis

The fact that the animal kingdom, although not the bacterial or the plant retain large amounts of
taurine from the oxidation of sulfur amino acids, whether an individual species makes it for itself
or gets it from dietary source, implies that taurine confers an evolutionary advantage. There are
other pathways of sulfur metabolism that provide clear advantages, yet the animal kingdom has
"chosen" to retain plurality of metabolic routes (Huxtable 1999). Little information is available
on taurine biosynthetic ability or inability in aquatic species
Mammals either biosynthesize taurine from cysteine, get it from diet or do both. Species with
high dietary intake of taurine seem to have lost the ability for ready biosynthesis. The enzyme
involved in the first step, cysteine sulfinate decarboxylase (CSD) has now been well
characterized and studied. The second step, the oxidation of hypotaurine to taurine, is still not
well understood (Huxtable, 1999).
Taurine biosynthesis occurs essentially entirely via the formation and decarboxylation of
cysteine sulfinate. The conversion of cysteine to taurine (Figure 1) is unusual in that the activities
of the two enzymes that determine its rate of synthesis in the liver are affected in opposite
directions by excess of dietary protein. Cysteine dehydrogenase activity is elevated by an
increase in dietary protein and where as CSD is decreased by an increase in dietary protein intake
(Stipanuk et al., 1994). The reduction in specific activity of CSD in rat liver hepatocytes fed

respectively. Supplementation of diets with excess methionine favored high rates of taurine
production, whereas supplementation of diets with excess protein favored high rates of sulfate
production. Although dietary cysteine can lower the dietary requirement for methionine, there is
an absolute requirement for methionine. It has functions in addition to transsulfuration is also
needed for protein synthesis. These functions include methylation and polyamine synthesis.
However, methionine is one of the most toxic amino acids. It causes growth retardation, tissue
damage and iron deposition in the spleen. Tissue levels must be kept low, and a dietary load
must be processed immediately (Huxtable, 1999). Relatively high levels of both Cysteine
dioxygenase and CSD activities are needed for high rates of taurine production in hepatocytes
(Bella and Stipanuk., 1996). Taurine production appears to be favored when cysteine availability
is high, suggesting that taurine formation and excretion may be an important route of disposal of
excess sulfur. These observations also suggest that the synthesis of taurine may not be conserved
metabolically in the face of a limited supply of cysteine and that the diet may be the major source
of taurine under such conditions (Stipanuk and Bagley, 1992).
Physiological role and requirement for taurine

Taurine is involved in a number of physiological processes such as neuromodulatory actions,
cardiac Ca++ modulation, fat absorption by emulsification as taurine-conjugated bile acids,
osmoregulation, reproduction and detoxification of metabolites and toxins to name a few. Due to
its diverse physiological functions the β-amino acid taurine is indeed conditionally essential.
Orally administered taurine has been reported to reduce lung oxidant damage from exposure to
ozone, nitrogen dioxide, paraquat, amiodarone and bleomycin in animal models (Santangelo et
al
., 2003).
Taurine plays an important role in conjugation of bile acids that are formed from cholesterol in
the liver, suggesting that there is a close relationship between taurine and cholesterol
metabolism. Taurine has a hypolipidemic effect and may stimulate hepatic bile synthesis
(Ogawa 1996).
In studies with aquatic animals Takeuchi (2001) found that taurine was essential for growth and
normal behavior of Japanese flounder, and determined the dietary requirement for that species
and investigated its synthetic pathways. In a study of taurine requirement in mahi-mahi
(Coryphaena hippurus), Divakaran et al., (1992) found that this species cannot synthesize
taurine to satisfy its nutritional requirement. Biosynthetic pathways for taurine in freshwater
prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) have been established (Smith et al., 1987). King and
Goldstein (1983) have shown that taurine is released from cells of marine fish in response to
environmental dilution and these taurine pumps have been shown to be quiet potent.
One clear mammalian function of taurine is a metabolic one: that of bile salt synthesis. As well
as varying in the use of taurine as a bile salt conjugator, mammalian species vary in their reliance
on biosynthetic versus dietary taurine. As much of the clinical and nutritional interest in taurine
stems from the significance of a dietary source, studies on species other than humans have to be
carefully interpreted (Huxtable 1999). For taurine functions other than conjugation, there are a

Villarreal Cavazos, Ana C. Puello Cruz y Armando García Ortega. Avances en Nutrición Acuícola VIII .VIII Simposium Internacional de Nutrición Acuícola. 15 - 17 Noviembre.

These include osmoregulation, calcium availability, channel regulation and phospholipoid methylation. In general taurine is high in species lacking cell walls (animals) and low in species with cell walls (Plants: bacteria). Taurine increase the retention of phosphatidylethanolomine and phosphatidylcholine. Taurine biosynthesis and dietary dependence in some mammals is summarized in Table 1. Table 1: Taurine biosynthesis and dietary dependence in some mammals (Huxtable, 1999)
There is evidence that taurine protects neural cells from exotoxicity induced by excitatory amino
acids. The increase in extra cellular levels of taurine in cell-damaging conditions may thus be an
important endogenous protective mechanism particularly efficient in the immature brain
(Saransaari and Oja 1996). In human subjects significantly lower neuroepinephrine excretion
observed by taurine administration implies the suppression of the sympathetic nervous system
(Mizushima et al. 1996). Taurine levels in the brain decrease and extra cellular levels increase in
response to pathologic conditions such as ischemia, anoxia (Lombardini, 1992) and it is not
unsafe to state in general taurine levels respond to conditions of stress.
Enantiostatic regulation has been defined as occurring when the effect of a change in
physicochemical property of the internal milieu is opposed by a change in another
physicochemical property. Such a regulation protects against the consequences of environmental
change. Enantiostasis differs from homeostasis in that the function is maintained although
physicochemical state is altered. Thus when taurine antagonizes calcium-induced alterations in
cardiac contractility it is regulating enantiostatically, inasmuch as physiological normal
contractility is re-established in the phase of physiologically abnormal calcium concentrations
(Huxtable 1999). Taurine fits all requirements for an enantiomeric agent.
Future research

This brief review on taurine, its content in various foods and tissues, taurine biosynthesis and its
physiological role and requirement emphasizes the need for further understanding of taurine in
aquacultured animals. As stated earlier taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid and its
nutritional requirements in aquatic animals seems little understood. Investigations on nutritional
requirement for taurine becomes even greater as the supply and demand for fish meal and related
byproducts such as fish solubles become constrained. Higher content of taurine in fisheries
byproducts could be one of the many reasons for better growth performance compared to animal
based by products. It is also seen from this review that taurine biosynthetic ability varies greatly
from one species to another and research in this area is of immense importance in determining

that ability or inability for taurine biosynthesis capabilities could lead to a taxanomic
understanding of various aquatic species. Finally with the recent fascination and flare for
organic aquaculture farming it may become essential to go for more regulated sources of taurine
than those currently found in animal and fisheries byproducts.
