Coupling and Selectivity of Sodium and Potassium Transport in Squid Giant Axons

Year: 1968

Type: article

Abstract: Our purpose in this paper is to present some experimental findings that have a bearing on the transport of sodium and potassium across the membrane of the squid giant axon. As in a variety of cellular types that actively transport sodium ions, a marked drop in the efflux of sodium ions from squid giant axons occurs when potas-
