Abstract excerpt
Potassium ion pool was studied in glycolyzing Enterococcus hirae, grown at high or low alkaline pH (pH 9.5 and 8.0, respectively). Energy-dependent increase of K+ pool was lower for the wild-type cells, grown at pH 9.5, than that for the cells grown at pH 8.0. It was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). The stoichiometry of DCCD-inhibited K+ influx to DCCD-inhibited H+ efflux for the wild-type...
