Abstract excerpt
To investigate the regulation of K+ fluxes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae the dependence of K+ efflux and Rb+ influx on [K+]i, pHi, [Na+]i, membrane potential, cell volume, and turgor pressure were studied in cells with different K+ contents. By decreasing the cell volume with osmotic shocks and the cellular pH with butyric acid the following was found. (1) The K+ efflux induced by uncouplers decreases...
