The effect of changes in extracellular pH (pH,) and intracellular pH (pHJ on Na+-dependent and Na+-independent inorganic phosphate (Pi) transport in Ehrlich cells was investigated. In the presence of Na+, acutely reducing pH, from 7.30 to 5.50 results first in a transient (-7 min) stimulation of Pi

In an effort to determine whether the Na+-dependent P, transport system of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells exhibits specificity for H,PO, or HPO, :, P, fluxes were determined by measuring "P,-P, self-exchange. Three experimental approaches were employed. First, the effect of pH on steady-state P, transp
The effects of extracellular P, and Na' on cellular Pi concentration and transport were studied. Steady-state P, exchange flux was measured by 3zP uptake in the presence and absence of Na'. Model experiments were also conducted to assess t h e possibility that hydrolysis of organic phosphate esters
The effect of extracellular Pi and arsenate on Pi-transport in Ehrlich ascites tumor cells has been studied. Pi-transport can be described by Michaelis-Menten kinetics; the maximal flux equal to 44 mmoles (kg cell water)-' hour-' and K m equal to 3.3 X 1 0 -4 M. Arsenate is a competitive inhibitor o
