## Abstract Energized cells of Streptococcus lactis conserve and transduce energy at the plasma membrane in the form of an electrochemical gradient of hydrogen ions (Ξp). An increase in energyβconsuming processes, such as cation transport, would be expected to result in a change in the steady state
To record the fast Na+ current, spheroidal heart cells enzymatically-dispersed from 3 approximately 18-day-old chick embryos were used for voltage clamping. The peak of currents in response to voltage steps of 200 ms long from holding potentials of -90 approximately -105 mV were measured. The curren
