Possible Interaction: Arginine and Potassium

“There are two reasons for suspecting that phosphate complexes of arginine make it very difficult to derive gating charge in voltage gated potassium (and presumably sodium) channels from the motion of charged arginines.”

“These findings support the view that arginines have a role in preventing potassium loss through the glucose transporter.”

“Conversely, and/or interference with the physiological control of decreased delivery of sodium chloride to the distal intracellular to extracellular potassium gradient may tubule … in hinders potassium secretion, e.g. prerenal azotemia serum potassium.1,2 A complex interaction of renal or severe congestive heart failure.8 Arginine … potassium ….”

“Trees fertilized with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium had significantly lower arginine concentrations than trees fertilized with the same amount of nitrogen only.”

“ Arginine transport was inhibited by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl-hydrazone, and potassium nitrate (an inhibitor of vacuolar ATPase activity).”
