— —Glutamic acid, glutamine, GABA and aspartic acid exhibited postnatal increases in the developing mouse brain at the same time that the other amino acids, both essential and non‐essential, of the pool decreased. The most significant decreases were observed in the concentrations of taurine, phosphoethanolamine, glycine and alanine. The period of rapid accumulation of the members of the glutamic acid family in the mouse brain was concurrent with dramatic increases and decreases in brain weight and water content, respectively.
