[The effect of hypothermia on kinetic characteristics of the rat brain synaptic membrane Na,K-ATPase].
The effect of profound hypothermia (acute or prolonged) on Km for ATP, Vm and strophanthine K affinity to Na,K-ATPase in the rat brain synaptosomal membranes was investigated. The temperature dependence of Na,K-ATPase activity in temperature range 5-40 degrees C was also studied. Hypothermia decreases Km and Vm, and increases affinity of strophanthine K to the enzyme. There are two linear sections in Arrhenius plots ofNa,K-ATPase activity. Hypothermia does not change position of the break point in Arrhenius plots. The mechanisms and biological significance of the changes revealed are discussed.
