Monovalent and Divalent Cation Permeation
Single channel patch-clamp techniques were used to study nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in cultured rat myotubes. The single channel conductance in pure cesium and sodium levels off at high concentrations, as if a binding site within the channel were saturating . The conductances at very low concentrations, however, are larger than predicted by the simplest one-site transport model fitted to...
متن کاملDivalent cation block and competition between divalent and monovalent cations in the large-conductance K+ channel from Chara australis
The patch-clamp technique is used to investigate divalent ion block of the large-conductance K+ channel from Chara australis. Block by Ba2+, Ca2+, Mg2+, and Pt(NH3)4(2+) from the vacuolar and cytoplasmic sides is used to probe the structure of, and ion interactions within, the pore. Five divalent ion binding sites are detected. Vacuolar Ca2+ reduces channel conductance by binding to a site loca...
متن کاملInterpretation of monovalent and divalent cation effects on the lac repressor-operator interaction.
We have investigated the effects of mixed Na+: Mg2+ ionic solutions on the stability of the nonspecific lac repressor-DNA complex. The effects of Mg2+ are simply interpreted in terms of its role as a competitor (with repressor) for DNA sites. From these studies, the binding constant of the Mg-DNA complex can be determined as a function of the concentration of Na+. We have used this information ...
متن کاملRole of the Invertebrate Electrogenic 2Na+/H+ Antiporter in Monovalent and Divalent Cation Transport
In recent years, an electrogenic 2Na + /1H + antiporter has been identified in a variety of invertebrate epithelial brush-border membranes of gut, kidney and gill tissues. The antiporter differs significantly in its physiological properties from the electroneutral 1Na + /1H + antiporter proposed for vertebrate cells. In all invertebrate cells examined, the antiporter displayed a 2:1 transport s...
متن کاملExperimental investigation of the dissolution of quartz by a muscovite mica surface: Implications for pressure solution
[1] Using the surface forces apparatus, which can measure small changes in thickness occurring even at essentially geological timescales, we have measured dissolution of quartz sheets when pressed against muscovite mica surfaces in aqueous electrolyte solution, but no dissolution is observed under dry conditions. It is postulated that the dissolved quartz may reprecipitate outside the contact j...
