AbstractThe passive uptake of ammonium ions to extracellular cation binding sites has been demonstrated for a range of lichen species. The possible competitive effect of other cations on ammonium binding is discussed. Binding of uncharged gaseous ammonia to exchange sites was also shown. The rapid loss of exchangeable ammonium from extracellular sites has been demonstrated and, because the greatest losses occur in living material, intracellular uptake is inferred. The labile nature of bound ammonium means that transfer of material to the laboratory for analysis may result in the underestimation of the amount bound.

Pretreatment of potato (Solanum tuberosumL., var. Russet) tuber discs in pH 5.5 buffer significantly reduced uptake of picloram (10−3M). Tissue pretreated in buffer at 7 C subsequently absorbed more picloram than tissue pretreated at 25 C. Inclusion of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (hereinafter referred to as CTAB) (2 × 10−4M) in the treating solution caused a significant increase in picloram uptake in tissues that were not pretreated in buffer. The reduction in uptake caused by buffer pretreatment was effectively reversed when CTAB was included in the treating solution. The results suggest that picloram uptake by potato tissue is related to the availability of the quaternary ammonium binding sites provided by membrane phosphatides.

ABSTRACT Sequencing the glnA genes of two chemically induced Azospirillum brasilense glutamine synthetase mutants revealed an Arg→Cys mutation, corresponding to the glutamate binding site, in one mutant and an Asp→Asn mutation, corresponding to the ammonium binding site, in the second mutant. The phenotypic changes in these mutants are discussed in relation to their genotypes.

We construct a fluorescent supramolecular system (TPE-Q4⊂ DSP5) of excellent tolerance to a wide range of pH by the facile self-assembly of a new pillar[5]arene bearing disulfonated arms (DSP5) with an AIE-active tetraphenylethene-based tetratopic guest bearing four quaternary ammonium binding sites (TPE-Q4), which exhibits strong blue emission even in dilute aqueous solutions along with much higher quantum yield and longer fluorescence lifetime than TPE-Q4 itself. This appreciable property can be attributed to the supramolecular assembly-induced emission (SAIE) mechanism endowed by the host-guest inclusion complexation based on synthetic macrocycles. Remarkably, the enhanced fluorescence of the supramolecular assembly is quenched efficiently and exclusively by ferric ions in water with a high Stern–Volmer formula constant of 1.3 × 105  mol-1, demonstrating the excellent cation selectivity and visualized responsiveness in ion sensing and detection.
