Abstract excerpt
Na+/H+ antiport was studied in alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. strain C-125, its alkali-sensitive mutant 38154, and a transformant (pALK2) with recovered alkaliphily. The transformed was able to maintain an intracellular pH (pHin) that was lower than that of external milieu and contained an electrogenic Na+/H+ antiporter driven only by delta psi (membrane potential, interior negative). The activity of this delta...
