Fig. 9. Effect of intravesicular OH– concentration on
35SO42– influx at 5 mmol
l–1 (A) and 10 mmol l–1
SO42– (B) (5 s uptakes) in hepatopancreatic LMV.
In both cases 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 7.0, 8.0 and 9.0. Loaded vesicles were then
incubated in media containing either 5 or 10 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 hyperbolic
curves drawn through the data using Sigma Plot software (Jandal).
