Popis: | Leakage induced across the plasma membrane of cells by poreforming agents is prevented by divalent cations. The same is true of leakage from liposomes or across a planar lipid bilayer. Divalent cation sensitivity appears not to depend on binding either to agent or to lipid. This paradoxical result may reflect the occurrence of a phenomenon described as ‘surface conductance’ |
