Abstract
The cyanobacterium Synechococcus 6311 adapts to grow in 0.6 M NaCl by developing an efficient system for sodium extrusion. In the present investigation cells loaded with NaC1 were subjected to a large dilution. Changes in fluorescence quenching of acridine orange as a function of transmembrane Na+ gradients provide evidence that Na+/H+ exchange activity greatly enhanced in salt-adapted cells.Entities:
