Abstract
The lecture describes recent work on a number of different partial reactions involving chemical transformation, and discusses the relations between these reactions and the movements of sodium and potassium ions. An account is given of recent experiments from the physiological laboratories at Yale and at Cambridge suggesting that ADP as well as ATP is required for sodium-sodium exchange, and that nucleotide is also required for potassium-potassium exchange.
