pH-dependent protonation of the carrier(s)
Two carrier-mediated systems transport sugars in the yeast Rhodotorula gracilis depending on the pH. One system, with higher affinity for sugars, catalyses a symport of protons with sugar, whereas the other system, having lower affinity, is independent of protons. This was shown in three different ways. (1) At low pH, where only the high-affinity system works, a H+/sugar stoicheiometry of 1 was...
متن کاملUse-Dependent Block of Human Cardiac Sodium Channels by GS967.
GS-458967, 6-(4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine (GS967) is a recently described, novel, sodium channel inhibitor exhibiting potent antiarrhythmic effects in various in vitro and in vivo models. The antiarrhythmic mechanism has been attributed to preferential suppression of late sodium current. However, there has been no reported systematic investigat...
متن کاملArylacetamide kappa-opioid receptor agonists produce a tonic- and use-dependent block of tetrodotoxin-sensitive and -resistant sodium currents in colon sensory neurons.
We have previously reported that U50,488 [(trans-3,4-dichloro-N-methyl-N-[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-cyclohexyl]benzeneacetamide] enantiomers contribute to visceral antinociception by a nonopioid receptor-mediated blockade of sodium currents in colon sensory neurons. The present experiments were undertaken to examine the effect of arylacetamide kappa-opioid receptor agonists (kappa-ORAs) U50,488 and EM...
متن کاملProtonation-dependent conformational dynamics of the multidrug transporter EmrE.
The small multidrug transporter from Escherichia coli, EmrE, couples the energetically uphill extrusion of hydrophobic cations out of the cell to the transport of two protons down their electrochemical gradient. Although principal mechanistic elements of proton/substrate antiport have been described, the structural record is limited to the conformation of the substrate-bound state, which has be...
متن کاملTime-dependent H2 formation and protonation in diffuse clouds
Aims. To demonstrate the time-approach to equilibrium of H2-formation and protonation in models of diffuse or H I interstellar gas clouds previously published by the author. Methods. The microscopic equations of H2-formation and protonation are integrated numerically over time in such a manner that the overall structures evolve self-consistently under benign conditions. Results. The equilibrium...
