Abstract
Glycine dependent Staphylococcus aureus var. bovis strains (TSCHÄPE and RISCHE 1971) were tested for their ability to grow on glycine containing and glycine deprived media. We observed glycine dependence only in minimal media. In complete media the strains grew in absence of glycine
Testing the ability of some glycine precursors we found that in minimal media glycine could be replaced by threonine and in some cases by serine. One mutant (Gly 100 Glyox.r.) was able to metabolize glyoxylate instead of glycine
Aspartic acid was metabolized in presence of glycine. Using ^14^C‐aspartic acid we detected ^14^C‐glycine and ^14^C‐threonine. Presumably the bacteria metabolize aspartic acid to glycine via threonine.
