Occlusion of rubidium ions by the sodium-potassium pump: its implications for the mechanism of potassium transport

Glynn, I. M.

RESUMO

1. The occlusion of rubidium ions by Na, K-ATPase has been investigated by suspending enzyme prepared from pig kidney outer medulla in media containing low concentrations of 86Rb, forcing the suspensions rapidly through small columns of cation-exchange resin, and measuring the amounts of radioactivity emerging from the columns.
