I t has been shown by isotope techniques (Rothstein and AIeier, '48) that a number of acid phosphatases are located on the cell surface of yeast. These phosphatases can hydrolyze such substrates as adenosine triphosphate, adenosine diphosphat e, inorganic t riphosphat e and pyrophosphat e, phenyl pl
In the conrse of experiments with liviiig yeast cells, it mas found tliat adenmine triyliosphate (ATP) added to the mecliuin was hydrolyzed to inorganic phosphate plus aderiylic acid.

## FOUR FIGURES I n previous papers of this series (Rothstein and Larrabee, '48 ; Rothstein, Frenkel and Larrabee, '48 ; Rothstein, Rleier and Hurwitz, '51; Rothstein and Meier, '51), it has been shown that the uranyl ion specifically inhibits the metabolism of hexoses by forming a highly undissoc
The method for measuring the surface tension of a fluid drop or bubble from the amount of flattening it undergoes when resting on a surface, has been used chiefly in the case of mercury o r gases. In these substances the difference in density between medium and drop is great enough to cause sufficie
