(na+ +k+)-dependent atpase was partially purified from eel gills by a procedure in which the microsomal fraction of crude preparations of chloride cells was selectively extracted with sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. the microsomal specific activity was increased 2-fold during optimal treatment with detergent. 3. the final preparation (56% pure) had a specific activity of 341 mumol of atp hydrolysed/h per mg of protein and a turnover number of 3560 min-1. the number of ouabain-binding sties equall ...	1979	39542
the electrosensitivity of the lateral line of the european eel, anguilla anguilla l.	the lateral line neuromast of the eel (anguilla anguilla) are slightly sensitive to electric current (threshold current density about 1 x 10(-6) a/cm2). a comparison is made with threshold values found by several authors by means of conditioning experiments.	1979	512967
the influence of environmental salinity, temperature, ionizing irradiation and yellow or silver stage on lipid metabolism in the gills of the european eel (anguilla anguilla).	1. the influence of temperature on the incorporation of [32p]phosphate and [14c]acetate into gill lipids in vivo depends also on environmental salinity. 2. ionizing irradiation (1000 r) results in a relatively enhanced incorporation of [32p]phosphate into phosphatidyl choline and of [14c]acetate into triglycerides and wax esters in vivo. 3. when gill tissue is removed from the animal and incubated in vitro, a pronounced dependence of lipid metabolism on previous environmental salinity is not obs ...	1979	318426
