Fig. 8. Effect of intravesicular pH on 35SO42– influx kinetics in hepatopancreatic LMV. In all cases extravesicular pH was held at pH 7.0. Vesicles were loaded with 200 mmol l–1 mannitol, 20 mmol l–1 Hepes/Tris at pH 7.0 (A), 8.0 (B) and 9.0 (C). Loaded vesicles were then incubated in media containing 2.5, 5, 10, 25 and 50 mmol l–1 K235SO4, 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 sigmoidal curves were drawn through the data using Sigma Plot software (Jandel).
