Fig. 7. Effect of intravesicular OH– concentration on
36Cl– influx (2.5, 5, 15, and 35 mmol
l–1 Cl–; 5 s uptakes) in hepatopancreatic
LMV. In all instances the extravesicular pH was held at 7.0. Vesicles were
loaded with 200 mmol l–1 mannitol, and either 20 mmol
l–1 Hepes/Tris or Mes/Tris, pH 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 and 9.0. Loaded
vesicles were then incubated in media containing 2.5, 5, 15 and 35 mmol
l–1 K36Cl–, 20 mmol
l–1 Hepes/Tris, pH 7.0, and mannitol to maintain osmolarity.
The experiment was repeated in triplicate; values are means ± 1 s.e.m.
The hyperbolic curves were drawn through the data using Sigma Plot software
(Jandal).
