Interaction of sodium, lithium, caesium, and potassium ions with ascorbyl radicals.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of the concentration of sodium, lithium, caesium, and potassium ions as well as of the ionic strength of the solutions used on the dismutation rate of ascorbyl radicals has been investigated. While the dismutation rate was not influenced by Li+, it decreased, however, with increasing concentrations of the other ions investigated. The largest effect was obtained with Na+. This change in dismutation rate indicates a stabilizing effect on ascorbyl radical by these ions.

The formation of thymidine-based T-tetramers with remarkable structural and metal ion size effects.
We present direct ESI Q-TOF MS and X-ray evidence for remarkable structural and metal ion size effects on the formation of thymidine-based T-tetramers. The conventional H-bond acceptors on the ribose and deoxyribose may disfavor the formation of T-tetramers, and in the series of alkali metal ions, lithium did not induce T-tetramer due to its small ion size. Sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesi...

متن کاملThe Effect of Calcium and Other Ions on the Autocatalytic Formation of Trypsin from Trypsinogen
Crystalline trypsinogen is completely transformed into trypsin by means of trypsin in the presence of calcium salts. The process follows the course of a pure autocatalytic unimolecular reaction. In the absence of calcium salts, the autocatalytic formation of trypsin from trypsinogen is complicated by the transformation of part of the trypsinogen into an inert protein which cannot be changed int...
متن کاملActive transport of sodium by the isolated midgut of Hyalophora cecropia.
Potassium is actively transported from blood-side to lumen of the isolated silkworm midgut (Harvey & Nedergaard, 1964). Rubidium is also actively transported and, when present in equal amounts, potassium and rubidium compete on an almost equal basis (Nedergaard & Harvey, 1968). Recently, Zerahn (1970) has found that caesium as well is actively transported, but the competition with potassium is ...
متن کاملThe Influence of Potassium- and Sodium-Free Solutions on Sodium Efflux from Squid Giant Axons
The sensitivity of sodium efflux to the removal of potassium ions from the external solution and the change in sodium efflux occurring when sodium ions are also removed were observed to be related. When Tris was used to replace external sodium ions, increases in sodium efflux were always observed whether the sensitivity of sodium efflux to external potassium ions was weak or strong. Greater per...
