Abstract
The monensin-mediated transport of sodium ions through the walls of large unilamellar vesicles of egg phosphatidylcholine was studied using 23Na-NMR and aqueous shift reagents. The transport is dynamic on the NMR time-scale and is strictly first order in monensin over the concentration ranges studied indicating that transport occurs by a 1:1 Na+-ionophore complex. Transport appears to be inhibited by increasing concentrations of Na+.Entities:
