Cation Transport in Escherichia coli

Schultz, Stanley G., Wilson, Norman L., Epstein, Wolfgang·1962·The Journal of General Physiology

Abstract

The intracellular Cl concentration in E. coli has been studied as a function of the Cl concentration in the growth medium and the age of the bacterial culture. The ratio of extracellular to intracellular Cl concentration is shown to be 3.0 in the logarithmic phase and 1.13 in the stationary phase, both ratios being independent of the extracellular Cl concentration. If it may be assumed that Cl is passively distributed in this organism, these results are consistent with a transmembrane P.D. of 29 mv, interior negative, during the logarithmic phase, and 3 mv, interior negative, in the stationary phase.

  • Other anions like chloride (Cl−) are more abundant in the cytoplasm (10-100 mM in E. coli), and even low levels of uncontrolled leak would disrupt the membrane potential with catastrophic consequences for processes that rely on the electrical potential.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
