“Na(+)/K(+)-dependent interconversion of the oligomers was analysed using HPLC at 0 degrees C. With increasing KCl concentrations, the content or amount of D increased from 27.6 to 54.3% of total protein, i.e. DeltaC(max) = 26.7%.”
“After constant basal levels of amino acid release were obtained, exposure to a depolarizing concentration of KCl (30 mM) evoked 4.05-, 2.18- and 3.00-fold increases in release of glutamic acid (Glu), aspartic acid (Asp) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) from synaptosomes.”
“At 35 degrees C and in the presence of 10 mM KCl , the pKa values for Asp 7, Glu 19, and Asp 27 (< 2.6, 3.2, and < 2.3, respectively) are more than 1 pH unit below those for model compounds.”
