The influence of injected cyclic AMP protein kinase catalytic subunit on the sodium efflux in barnacle muscle fibres

Abstract
A study has been made of the response of the Na efflux in single barnacle muscle fibers to the injection of cAMP protein kinase catalytic subunit (CSU). Injected CSU stimulates the Na efflux in unpoisoned and ouabain-poisoned fibers. Stimulation in both situations is always sustained, and stimulation of the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux is observed with as low a concentration as 10-7 M-CSU. CSU behaves as a modulator of the ouabain-insensitive Na efflux. Mg2+, Fe and Zn are inhibitors of the catalytic reaction.
