Geer, B. W. published the artcileThe growth effects of carnitine, deoxycarnitine, and sulfocholine for Drosophila, Neurospora, and Saccharomyces, Related Products of chlorides-buliding-blocks, the publication is Growth (1965), 29(4), 405-13, database is CAplus.
The physiol. activities of choline (I) were studied in Saccharomyces carlsbergensis, a I-requiring strain of Neurospora crassa, and Drosophila melanogaster. The related compounds deoxycarnitine (II), carnitine (III), and sulfocholine (IV) were then substituted for dietary I. IV was more effective than I in inhibiting the growth response of S. carlsbergensis to inositol, was slightly less effective than I in promoting the growth of I-requiring N. crassa, and was ∼50% as effective as I in stimulating the growth of D. melanogaster larvae. II and III were ineffective in the Neurospora and Saccharomyces systems, but were nearly as effective as I in the Drosophila system. Thus, the Neurospora and Saccharomyces systems are fundamentally similar in their responses to the test compounds The ability to utilize dietary II and III effectively for growth in place of I apparently evolved within the insect order Diptera.
