The pH dependence of previously reported effects of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) on cation binding by rat liver microsomes was studied by an equilibration and washing procedure. Equilibration of microsomes in media containing 95 mM NaCl and 4 mM MgCl2 with pH varied from 4 to 8 resulted in an increase in bound cations from zero below pH 4 to 0.90 mmoles Mg and 0.34 mmoles Na/g N at pH 8; the ratio of bound Na/bound Mg increased from 0.15 at pH 5 to 0.38 at pH 8. Addition of 5 mM EDTA to the equilibration media produced striking changes in cation binding such that bound Na/bound Mg increased from 0.30 at pH 5 to 3.90 at pH 7 and decreased to 3.55 at pH 8. In the presence of added 10 mM ATP, bound Na/bound Mg increased from 0.10 at pH 5 to a maximum of 0.80 at pH 7. The observed changes could generally be correlated with known mass law relationships, although the system containing added ATP was complicated considerably by the hydrolysis of ATP. Results demonstrate that environmental pH is an important factor in determining the effect of ATP and EDTA on the cation binding pattern of cellular membranes. Because hydrogen ion is a product of ATP hydrolysis as well as of other metabolic reactions, the described interactions may be of particular significance in the molecular mechanisms of ATP effects on cation binding and transport in living cells. 相似文献

Growth and cesium accumulation characteristics of two cesium-accumulating bacteria isolated from soils were investigated. Rhodococcus erythropolis CS98 and Rhodococcus sp. strain CS402 accumulated high levels of cesium (approximately 690 and 380 μmol/g [dry weight] of cells or 92 and 52 mg/g [dry weight] of cells, respectively) after 24 h of incubation in the presence of 0.5 mM cesium. The optimum pH for cesium uptake by both Rhodococcus strains was 8.5. Rubidium and cesium assumed part of the role of potassium in the growth of both Rhodococcus strains. Potassium and rubidium inhibited cesium accumulation by these Rhodococcus strains. It is likely that both Rhodococcus strains accumulated cesium through a potassium transport system. 相似文献

The effects of ion concentration, pH, and presence of competing ions on the sodium and potassium binding properties of rat liver cell microsomes were studied. Typical adsorption isotherms were obtained in the concentration dependence studies, with saturation being reached when 1.2 to 1.4 m.eq. cations were retained per gm. of microsome Kjeldahl nitrogen. The retention was shown to be due to a binding to specific sites rather than to a trapping of the cations. The binding showed a sharp pH dependence in the range 6.0 to 7.5. The presence of one cation depressed the binding of the other, indicating that Na+ and K+ as well as H+ ions compete for the same sites. Potassium was bound slightly more strongly than sodium, while hydrogen was bound about 105 times more strongly than either. Calculations show that the binding follows the simple mass law. Similarities between adsorption by microsomes and adsorption by synthetic cation exchange resins are discussed and compared to some of the characteristics of electrolyte behavior in living systems. A possible ion exchange elution, active cation transport mechanism is suggested, involving the preferential elution of Na+ out of the cell by H+ ions produced by metabolism. 相似文献

The inward transport of potassium by separated dog erythrocytes has been studied at concentrations of potassium in the medium from 2.9 to 25.0 m.eq./liter and at 38.0 and 33.0 degrees C. At the physiological concentration of external potassium (4.06 m.eq./liter medium), the inward potassium flux is 0.11 m.eq./liter cells hour and the glucose consumption is 2.0 mM/liter cells hour. The dependence of potassium influx on extracellular potassium concentration is given by the following equation, K influx (m.eq./liter cells hour) = 0.028 [K](amb.) - 0.003 in which [K](amb.) refers to the potassium concentration in the medium. In a single 93 hour experiment, 94 per cent of the intracellular potassium was exchanged at an apparently uniform rate. The average apparent activation energy for the process is 7,750 calories +/- 2,000 calories/mol and there is some indication that the apparent activation energy of inward K transport decreases with increasing external K concentration. 相似文献

Zusammenfassung Es werden Untersuchungen zur Kalium-, Rubidium- und Cäsium- Anreicherung am perfundierten Meerschweinchenherzen durchgeführt. Unter Verwendung der Radionuklide42K,86Rb und137Cs werden mit Hilfe einer Meßeinrichtung Alkaliionenflüsse zwischen Perfusionslösung und Herzmuskelzelle bestimmt. Es wird die Mehrdeutigkeit der Versuchsergebnisse diskutiert und einexperimentum crucis vorgeschlagen, das entscheiden soll, ob das Ruhepotential als Diffusionsoder als Grenzflächenpotential angesehen werden muß. Im Hinblick auf die unterschiedliche Kalium- und Cäsium-137-Anreicherung im Säugetierorganismus zeigen die Versuche, daß sich Cäsium gegenüber der Muskelzelle qualitativ wie Kalium verhält und daß Cäsium im Herzmuskel nicht bevorzugt angereichert wird.
On the preferred accumulation of cesium 137 in mammalian organism in comparison with the accumulation of potassiumI. Accumulation of potassium, rubidium and cesium in the perfused guinea-pig heart
Summary Experiments concerning the accumulation of potassium, rubidium and cesium in the perfused guinea-pig heart were performed. Using the radionuclides42K,86Rb,137Cs and a scintillation counter, the alkali ion fluxes between the perfusion solution and the heart muscle cells are evaluated. The ambiguity of the results is discussed and anexperimentum crucis is proposed which shall decide wether the resting potential has the character of a diffusion or of a phase-boundary potential. As to the different accumulations of potassium and cesium in mammalian organism, our experiments demonstrate that the transport mechanism into the cell is similar for potassium and cesium and that cesium is not accumulated at a higher degree than potassium in the heart muscle cell.相似文献

Interactions which determine the rate of conversion of fibrinogen into monomer fibrin and the retention of monomer fibrin in a noncompactible form through interaction with residual fibrinogen (solution stabilization) were examined through the kinetics of formation of equilibrium compactible network at pH 7 and ionic strength 0.15. For studies of conversion, reactions with thrombin were at 29 or 2 °C, hirudin was added at successive times to inhibit thrombin, and compactible network was equilibrated at 2 °C, where solution stabilization is negligible. A substrate dependency of initial rate is interpreted on the basis of inactive complex formation between thrombin and both fibrinogen and monomer fibrin. At 29 or 2 °C specific rate constants are 32 or 2.9 × 106 liter/mol, and association constants for inactive complex formation are 5.2 or 2.0 × 105 liter/mol. The second peptide-A is removed from fibrinogen ~ 40-fold as rapidly as the first.With equilibration at 29 °C, compactible network does not appear until the solution stabilization ratio of residual fibrinogen/monomer fibrin is four. Thereafter, increasing amounts of compactible network appear. However, the stabilization ratio progressively decreases to approximately two, a situation which indicates the complexity of the stabilization mechanism.The thrombin-hirudin association constant is estimated to be 4.9 or 17 × 1011 liter/mol at 29 or 2 °C. 相似文献

Summary Bush bean plants were exposed to either Rb86 or Cs137 for 24 hours with different monovalent cations as carriers in single-salt solutions except for the presence of 10−4
M CaCl2. Ratio of uptake of the radionuclides at 10−3 to 10−2
M was used as an index of the carrier ability of various cations. Different monovalent cations decreased uptake of Cs137 and its transport to shoots unequally when 10−2
M salts were compared with 10−3
M salts. Rubidium and cesium salts decreased Cs137 uptake equally but potassium salts were less effective in decreasing uptake when the ratios of the two concentrations were
considered. All monovalent cations decreased uptake of Cs137 at the 10−2
M carrier concentration but some did not at 10−3
M. Nitrate nitrogen was a big factor in these results. Cesium and rubidium salts were most effective. Potassium appeared to
increase Cs137 transport to shoots particularly at 10−3
M KNO3. Only cesium, rubidium, and potassium salts decreased uptake of Rb86 when 10−2
M salts were compared with 10−3
M. Rubidium and cesium salts decreased uptake essentially equally and potassium salts again were less effective. All nitrate
salts tended to increase Rb86 transport to shoots more consistently than with Cs137. It is concluded that absorption and transport to shoots were not equivalent for potassium, rubidium, and cesium. 相似文献

Histones are associated with DNA to form nucleosome essential for chromatin structure and major nuclear processes like gene regulation and expression. Histones consist of H1, H2A, H2B and H3, H4 type proteins. In the present study, combined histones from calf thymus were complexed with ct DNA and their binding affinities were measured fluorimetrically. All the five histones were resolved on SDS page and their binding with DNA was visualized. The values of biding affinities varied with pH and salt concentration. Highest affinity (4.0?×?105 M?1) was recorded at pH 6.5 in 50 mM phosphate buffer and 1.5?×?104 M?1 in 2 M NaCl at pH 7.0. The CD spectra support the highest binding affinity with maximum conformational changes at pH 7.0. The time-resolved fluorescence data recorded two life times for histone tyrosine residues at 300 nm emission in phosphate buffer pH 6.5. These life times did not show much change upon binding with DNA in buffer as well as in 2 M NaCl. The isothermal calorimetric studies yielded thermodynamic parameters ΔG, ΔH and ΔS as ?1.6?×?105 cal/mol, ?1.13?×?103 cal/mol and ?3.80 cal/mol/deg, respectively, evidencing a spontaneous exothermic reaction. The dominant binding forces in building the nucleosome are electrostatic interactions. 相似文献

SYNOPSIS. When Euglena gracilis were grown with 10mM succinate at pH 3.5 the extracellular pH averaged 3.62 and the cultures had produced 6 × 105 cells/ml when the stationary phase began. Oxygen consumption values reached a maximum of 30 μliters/106 cells/hr. Total protein and dry weights per cell remained constant during the logarithmic phase and began to decline when the late logarithmic phase was reached. Added succinate caused the cultures in stationary phase to commence logarithmic growth once more. Onset of the stationary phase in cultures grown at pH 3.5 was due to depletion of succinate. When cultures were grown at pH 6.9 the extracellular pH averaged 7.62 and the cultures produced 3 × 105 cells/ml when the stationary phase began. Oxygen consumption values reached a maximum of 20 μliters/106 cells/hr during the logarithmic phase. The decline in total protein and dry weights per cell began at the beginning of the logarithmic phase and continued into the stationary phase of growth. Cultures grown at pH 3.5 should produce a larger number of cells/ml than cultures grown at pH 6.9 if the cells are responding to the unionized moiety of succinate and not the ionized moiety. At pH 3.5 83% of the succinate is unionized, whereas at pH 6.9 0.20% of the succinate is unionized. The onset of the stationary phase in cultures grown at pH 3.5 and pH 6.9 is due to lack of an adequate amount of extracellular unionized succinate. Intracellular pH values were determined in cultures grown at pH 6.9 using the weak acid DMO (5.5-dimethyl-2,4-oxazolidinedione). As the extracellular pH increased from 6.90 to 7.62, the intracellular pH increased from 5.89 to 6.89. As the extracellular pH increased from 7.62 to 8.44, the intracellular pH increased from 6.89 to 7.50. 相似文献

Values have been calculated for apparent mobilities and partition coefficients in the outer non-aqueous layer of the protoplasm of Nitella. Among the alkali metals (with the exception of cesium) the order of mobilities resembles that in water and the partition coefficients (except for cesium) follow the rule of Shedlovsky and Uhlig, according to which the partition coefficient increases with the ionic radius. Taking the mobility of the chloride ion as unity, we obtain the following: lithium 2.04, sodium 2.33, potassium 8.76, rubidium 8.76, cesium 1.72, ammonium 4.05, ½ magnesium 20.7, and ½ calcium 7.52. After exposure to guaiacol these values become: lithium 5.83, sodium 7.30, potassium 8.76, rubidium 8,76, cesium 3.38, ammonium 4.91, ½ magnesium 20.7, and ½ calcium 14.46. The partition coefficients of the chlorides are as follows, when that of potassium chloride is taken as unity: lithium 0.0133, sodium 0.0263, rubidium 1.0, cesium 0.0152, ammonium 0.0182, magnesium 0.0017, and calcium 0.02. These are raised by guaiacol to the following: lithium 0.149, sodium 0.426, rubidium 1.0, cesium 0.82, ammonium 0.935, magnesium 0.0263, and calcium 0.323 (that of potassium is not changed). The effect of guaiacol on the mobilities of the sodium and potassium ions resembles that seen in Halicystis but differs from that found in Valonia where guaiacol increases the mobility of the sodium ion but decreases that of the potassium ion. 相似文献

Effects of taurine on Ca++ binding to microsomes isolated from rat cerebral cortex were investigated in a medium containing various concentrations of KCl and/or NaCl. Calcium binding to microsomes was inhibited in a dose-dependent fashion by taurine in the incubation medium containing 5 mM KCl and 115 mM NaCl, while there was no inhibition in the medium containing 115 mM KCl and 5 mM NaCl. Taurine also decreased Ca++ binding in the medium containing 70 mM KCl without NaCl. A similar tendency toward inhibition of the Ca++ binding was observed in the medium with 5 mM or 120 mM KCl without NaCl. Taurine did not influence the Ca++ binding in the medium containing different concentrations of NaCl without KCl, or in the medium from which KCl and NaCl were omitted. Isethionate, glycine, γ-aminobutyric acid, β-alanine and L-leucine did not significantly alter the Ca++ binding to microsomes in the medium containing 70 mM KCl without NaCl. Thus it would appear that taurine may modulate the binding of calcium to microsomes in conditions which resemble the state of depolarization, while it is inactive in the normal resting state. This effect is apparently specific to taurine amongst a series of putative “inhibitory” amino acids. 相似文献

We have studied the effects of external cesium and rubidium on potassium conductance of voltage clamped squid axons over a broad range of concentrations of these ions relative to the external potassium concentration. Our primary novel finding concerning cesium is that relatively large concentrations of this ion are able to block a small, but statistically significant fraction of outward potassium current for potentials less than approximately 50 mV positive to reversal potential. This effect is relieved at more positive potentials. We have also found that external rubidium blocks outward current with a qualitatively similar voltage dependence. This effect is more readily apparent than the cesium blockade, occurring even for concentrations less than that of external potassium. Rubidium also has a blocking effect on inward current, which is relieved for potentials more than 20-40 mV negative to reversal, thereby allowing both potassium and rubidium ions to cross the membrane. We have described these results with a single-file diffusion model of ion permeation through potassium channels. The model analysis suggests that both rubidium and cesium ions exert their blocking effects at the innermost site of a two-site channel, and that rubidium competes with potassium ions for entry into the channel more effectively than does cesium under comparable conditions. 相似文献

1. Frog muscles perfused with Ringer solution in which potassium chloride has been replaced by an equivalent amount of rubidium or cesium chloride take up rubidium or cesium and incorporate them into the tissue substance in such form as to be retained during a subsequent perfusion with potassium-free Ringer solution, provided the muscles contract during the first perfusion. Retention of rubidium or cesium by a resting muscle does not occur. 2. Rats on synthetic diets, adequate in all respects except that potassium was replaced by an equivalent amount of rubidium or cesium, died after a period varying from 10 to 17 days with characteristic symptoms including tetanic spasms. Muscle, heart, liver, kidney, spleen, and lung tissues were then found to contain significant amounts of rubidium or cesium. The concentration of these metals in the muscle amounted, in some cases, as shown by a spectroscopic estimation, to about half the concentration of potassium normally found in mammallian muscle. 3. The results are regarded as tending to confirm the theory that the peculiarities in the physiological effects of potassium, including the facility with which it is "selected" by living cells in preference to sodium, are related to the electronic structure of the potassium ion as compared with that of similar ions. The possible relationship of the comparative migration velocity, a function of the electronic structure, to physiological effects is suggested. 相似文献

Rhodopseudomonas capsulata required potassium (or rubidium or cesium as analogs of potassium) for growth. These cations were actively accumulated by the cells by a process following Michaelis-Menten saturation kinetics. The monovalent cation transport system had Km's of 0.2 mM K+, 0.5 mM Rb+, and 2.6 mM Cs+. The rates of uptake of substrates by the potassium transport system varied with the age of the culture, although the affinity constant for the substrates remained constant. The maximal velocity of uptake of K+ was lower in aerobically grown cells than in photosynthetically grown cells, although the Km's for K+ and for Rb+ were about the same. 相似文献

Effects of ionizing radiation and of sulfhydryl reagents on the 45Ca binding of red cell membranes were studied. Corresponding effects of these agents on potassium leak from intact red cells were also determined. Essentially all the 45Ca associated with the ghosts appeared to be bound. Calcium binding could be described by assuming two independent groups of binding sites with dissociation constants of about 6 × 10?4 m and 2 × 10?4 m. The total binding capacity was about 2.5 × 10?4 moles/g ghost protein. Membrane calcium was decreased by radiation and by the two sulfhydryl reagents, p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB) and N-ethyl maleimide (NEM). The tightly bound calcium fraction appeared to be most affected by these agents. Changes in potassium leak evoked by varying doses of agents appeared to parallel effects on membrane calcium. These investigations suggest that the increased cation permeability observed after exposure or red cells to radiation or sulfhydryl reagents may be related to alterations in the calcium-binding properties of the cell membrane. 相似文献

The reduction of membrane potential in frog sartorius muscle produced by rubidium and cesium ions has been studied over a wide concentration range and compared with depolarization occasioned by potassium ions. The constant field theory of passive flux has been used to predict the potential changes observed. The potential data suggest certain permeability coefficient ratios and these are compared with ratios obtained from flux data using radioactive tracers. The agreement of the flux with the potential data is good if account is taken of the inhibition of potassium flux which occurs in the presence of rubidium and cesium ions. A high temperature dependence has been observed for cesium influx (Q10 = 2.5) which is correlated with the observation that cesium ions depolarize very little at low temperatures. The observations suggest that cesium ions behave more like sodium ions at low temperatures and more like potassium ions at room temperature with respect to their effect on the muscle cell resting potential. The constant field theory of passive ion flux appears to be in general agreement with the experimental results observed if account is taken of the dependence of permeability coefficients on the concentrations of ions used and of possible interactions between the permeabilities of ions. 相似文献

Specific and ouabain-sensitive potassium binding to Na+, K+-ATPase was directly observed by centrifugation method with the purified enzyme and 42K. The specific binding reached to saturation level at concentrations more than 0.2 mM KCl and the level was 6.2 nmol per mg ATPase with specific activity of 1470 μmol Pi/h·mg. The binding level, however, was proportional to the enzyme unit used. Simultaneous determination of 42K binding and [3H]ouabain binding showed that two mol of potassium binding were blocked by one mol of ouabain binding per 3.2×105 g enzyme. Although the apparent dissociation constant of the specific potassium binding was estimated at about 50 μM, Scatchard plot of the binding revealed non-linear relationship suggesting that the two potassium sites existed on one catalytic unit of enzyme would be not equivalent but cooperative. 相似文献

AbstractThe calcium binding properties of isolated plasma membranes from normal and SV40 transformed hamster lymphocytes were compared over the Ca2+ concentration range of 10?5M to 5 × 10?3M and at physiological ionic strength. At all Ca2+ concentrations, normal membranes bound more Ca2+ than tumor membranes; at blood Ca2+ levels (1–2 mM) plasma membranes of normal cells bind twice as much as membranes from tumor cells. Normal plasma membranes demonstrated positive cooperative Ca2+ binding whereas tumor membranes displayed non-interacting Ca2+-binding sites. Ca2+ binding to both membranes was insensitive to Mg2+ (0.1 to 2.5 mM). A pH shift from 7 to 6 resulted in a 70% decrease of normal membrane-bound Ca2+ compared to a 40% decrease observed with tumor membranes. Extracellular surface Ca2+ binding to intact cells was also studied after a 72-hour equilibration of cells with 45Ca2+ and with ethylene-glycol-bis-(β-amino-ethyl ether) N, N′-tetraacetate chelation as marker for surface Ca2+. Tumor cell surface Ca2+ binding was only 10% of that observed with quiescent lymphocytes. Normal lymphocytes stimulated to divide with phytohemagglutinin also showed a decreased level of surface Ca2+ (50%). However, plasma membranes isolated from non-dividing and phytohemagglutinin-stimulated lymphocytes exhibited equivalent Ca2+ binding. 相似文献

Summary Bush bean plants were exposed to either Rb86 or Cs137 with and without carrier rubidium or cesium for 48 hours in a complete nutrient solution. These solutions were then discarded. The plants were then allowed to grow for 11 additional days in complete nutrient solution except that potassium was omitted. Measurement of Rb86, Cs137, and potassium in new leaves indicated that Cs137 was retranslocated to the new growth much slower than was potassium but that proportionately more Rb86 was in new leaves than potassium and these results were independent of the presence or absence of the respective carriers. Considerably more Rb86 than Cs137 was absorbed by the plants either with or without the carriers. 相似文献

The influence of Ca++, several drugs, and pH on the binding of Ca++ by skeletal muscle microsomes was studied in vitro. A mass-law graphic analysis revealed the presence of three distinct species of Ca++-binding sites in the microsomes, and the binding at only one of these sites was antagonized by local anesthetics and quinidine. These drugs also decreased the maximum Ca++-binding capacity of the microsomes. Caffeine and ouabain exerted no effect on the binding at any of the sites. Procaine was also bound by microsomes, and this binding was antagonized by Ca++, which also decreased the maximum procaine-binding capacity of microsomes. The sites that bind procaine and Ca++ are not identical because the maximum-binding capacities of the interacting sites are distinctly different. The influence of pH on the ability of drugs to antagonize Ca++ binding indicates that the displacing activity increases as the percentage of the drug in the nonionized form increases. All of the data obtained in the above studies are consistent with the interpretation that quinidine and local anesthetics of the procaine type noncompetitively antagonize the binding of Ca++ by microsomes. The pharmacological significance of a noncompetitive interaction may be related to the property of local anesthetics and quinidine to increase contractile tension in skeletal muscle rather than to their ability to stabilize the cell membrane. 相似文献
