pubmed:abstractText
Potassium-free artificial sea water causes a loss of cell potassium and a gain of cell sodium in Porphyra perforata, which is not attributable to an inhibition of respiration. On adding KCl or RbCl to such low potassium, high sodium tissues, net accumulation of potassium or rubidium takes place, accompanied by net extrusion of sodium. Rates of potassium or rubidium accumulation and sodium extrusion are proportional to the amount of KCl or RbCl added only at low concentrations. Saturation of rates is evident at KCl or RbCl concentrations above 20-30 mM, suggesting the role of an ion carrier mechanism of transport. Evidence for and against mutually dependent sodium extrusion and potassium or rubidium accumulation is discussed.
