1. During synchronous growth of the acellular slime mould Physarum polycephalum the free amino pool had two maxima, one of 650 units [nmol/plasmodium dry weight (mg)] at metaphase and the other of 780 units in mid G2 with minima of 550 units before and after mitosis. 2. Proline formed 20--25% of the total pool with aspartic acid, glutamic acid, threonine, valine, leucine, lysine and arginine making up 55% of the pool. 3. The fluctuation of proline during the mitotic cycle was quite different from that of the other amino acids and was transiently very low during telophase.
