Abstract
The transport properties of membrane systems are important for the maintenance of stable conditions for the biochemical reactions that take place in the cell and its organelles. The regulation of transport, particularly of transport through the plasmalemma, must be sensitive for the short-time variations that obviously occur to a greater extent in the surroundings of plant cells than around animal cells. In order to study functions related to transport and regulation, we have prepared plasmalemma vesicles from the 10,000 – 30,000 g microsomal fraction of root homogenates from oat and wheat, using the aqueous polymer two-phase separation technique (Lundborg et al. 1981, Widell et al. 1982).
