Membrane potential, proton and sodium motive forces in Azospirillum brasilense Sp7-S
Some biophysical features of the diazotroph Azospirillum brasilense Sp7-S were studied. It maintained a stable but relatively low membrane potential (v8) of about 385 mV in conditions typical of aerated soil solutions. Internal pH was also well regulated at about 7.4 from pH 6^8. The calculated proton motive force was maximal at 3220 mV in pH 5.0 medium, decreasing to zero at pH 8.8. This proto...
متن کاملEnergizing porters by proton-motive force.
It is generally accepted that the chemistry of water was the most crucial determinant in shaping life on earth. Among the more important chemical features of water is its dissociation into protons and hydroxyl ions. The presence of relatively high proton concentrations in the ambient solution resulted in the evolution of proton pumps during the dawn of life on earth. These proton pumps maintain...
متن کاملTransport of amino acids in Lactobacillus casei by proton-motive-force-dependent and non-proton-motive-force-dependent mechanisms.
Lactobacillus casei 393 cells which were energized with glucose (pH 6.0) took up glutamine, asparagine, glutamate, aspartate, leucine, and phenylalanine. Little or no uptake of several essential amino acids (valine, isoleucine, arginine, cysteine, tyrosine, and tryptophan) was observed. Inhibition studies indicated that there were at least five amino acid carriers, for glutamine, asparagine, gl...
متن کاملMembrane deinsertion of SecA underlying proton motive force-dependent stimulation of protein translocation.
The proton motive force (PMF) renders protein translocation across the Escherichia coli membrane highly efficient, although the underlying mechanism has not been clarified. The membrane insertion and deinsertion of SecA coupled to ATP binding and hydrolysis, respectively, are thought to drive the translocation. We report here that PMF significantly decreases the level of membrane-inserted SecA....
متن کاملSpin-motive forces and current-induced torques in ferromagnets
In metallic ferromagnets, the spin-transfer torque and spin-motive force are known to exhibit a reciprocal relationship. Recent experiments on ferromagnets with strong spin-orbit coupling have revealed a rich complexity in the interaction between itinerant charge carriers and magnetization, but a full understanding of this coupled dynamics is lacking. Here, we develop a general phenomenology of...
