title: Electrogenic properties of the Na+,K+-ATPase probed by presteady state and relaxation studies.
abstract: Electrical measurements on planar lipid bilayers, patch/voltage clamp experiments, and spectroscopic investigations involving a potential sensitive dye are reviewed. These experiments were performed to analyze the kinetics of charge translocation of the Na+,K+-ATPase. High time resolution was achieved by applying caged ATP, voltage-jump, and stopped-flow techniques, respectively. Kinetic parameters and the electrogenicity of the relevant transitions in the Na+,K+-ATPase reaction cycle are discussed.
