Studies on gill ATPase of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri).
TLDR
The alkali metal-activated ATPase activity was greater in the gills of salt water fish than those adapted to fresh water, whereas the salt water enzyme showed a distinct optimum at pH 7.1.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Distinct freshwater and seawater isoforms of Na+/K+-ATPase in gill chloride cells of Atlantic salmon.
TL;DR: The results indicate that there is a freshwater and a seawater isoform of NKA α-subunit in the gills of Atlantic salmon and that they are present in distinct chloride cells.

Acclimation to Copper by Rainbow Trout, Salmo gairdneri: Biochemistry
Darrel Jon Laurén,D. G. McDonald +1 more
TL;DR: Copper accumulation was highest in the liver, but other tissues also accumulated copper, and a sulfhydryl-rich, acid-soluble protein, tentatively identified as metallothionein, increased by 2.8 times.
Journal ArticleDOI
New insights into gill ionocyte and ion transporter function in euryhaline and diadromous fish.
TL;DR: Immunohistochemistry of NKA by itself and in combination with Na(+/K(+)/2Cl(-) cotransporter and CFTR Cl(-) channel provided convincing evidence that ionocytes are functional during seawater acclimation, and revealed morphological variations in ionocytes among teleost species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression and distribution of Na, K-ATPase in gill and kidney of the spotted green pufferfish, Tetraodon nigroviridis, in response to salinity challenge
TL;DR: Although identical distributions of NKA were found in either gill or kidney of FW-, BW- or SW-acclimated spotted green pufferfish, differential NKA expression in fish of various salinity groups was associated with physiological homeostasis (stable blood osmolality), and illustrated the impressive osmoregulatory ability of this freshwater and estuarine species in response to salinity challenge.
Book ChapterDOI
NaCl Transport in Gills and Related Structures
TL;DR: This first part of the review will survey the actual knowledge on various aspects of NaCl transport and related mechanisms at work in gills of invertebrates.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent
TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of some cations on an adenosine triphosphatase from peripheral nerves.
TL;DR: Leg nerves from the shore crab contain an adenosine triphosphatase which is located in the submicroscopic particles, and the influence of sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium ions on this enzyme has been investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of some cations on an adenosine triphosphatase from peripheral nerves.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the influence of different cations on the activity of an adenosine triphosphatase (ATP) enzyme in the leg nerves of crabs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Further investigations on a Mg++ + Na+-activated adenosintriphosphatase, possibly related to the active, linked transport of Na+ and K+ across the nerve membrane
TL;DR: The observations lend further support to the suggestion made previously that this enzyme is involved in the active, linked transport of Na+ and K+ across the nerve membrane.
