1. The electrogenic contribution of the Na(+)-K(+) exchange pump to the membrane potential of the Anisodoris giant neurone (G cell) was examined under steady-state and Na(+) loaded conditions.2. The membrane potential was variable for the first 1-4 hr after impalement, but, in the absence of experimental manipulation, remained constant thereafter. The average membrane potential for ten cells maintained at 11-13 degrees C and measured 5-36 hr after impalement was 55.8 +/- 1.0 mV (S.E. of mean).3. Low concentrations of external ACh caused a reversible increase in membrane Na(+) conductance. Brief exposure to ACh proved a fast and reversible technique to load the cell with Na(+) ions, and transiently stimulate the electrogenic Na(+) pump.4. In ten cells maintained from 5 to 36 hr at 11-13 degrees C the reduction in membrane potential produced by inhibition of the Na(+) pump with ouabain was remarkably constant between cells and averaged + 9.7 mV.5. Cells maintained under steady-state conditions (at 11-13 degrees C) for extended periods of time were shown to be relatively insensitive to changes in temperature and to small changes in external K(+).6. It is estimated that the Na(+)-K(+) exchange pump contributes approximately - 10 mV to the steady-state resting potential of the G cell, and that two Na(+) ions are extruded for every K(+) ion transported into the cell per pump cycle.
