  • Title: Metabolic cooperative control of electrolyte levels by adenosine triphosphate in the frog muscle.
    Author: Gulati J, Ochesenfeld MM, Ling GN.
    Journal: Biophys J; 1971 Dec; 11(12):973-80. PubMed ID: 5316285.
    Abstract:
    This study examines the effects of metabolic inhibitors on the content of cellular K, Na, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP and K are seen to fall in the inhibited tissues. The ATP content is correlated with the K content. The role of ATP is examined according to a recent biophysical approach. It is suggested that ATP may control the electrolyte levels by inducing conformational changes in the cytoplasmic proteins.
