[Proton transfer from water to octane coupled with the reaction of ATP hydrolysis by soluble ATPase from chloroplasts].

It has been shown that soluble ATPase from chloroplasts adsorbed at the octane/water interface generates an ATP hydrolysis coupled potential charge (deltapi) at the interphase. This process occurs in the presence of a lipid-soluble proton acceptor, in the capacity of which 2,4-dinitrophenol is used. The dependence of deltapi, generated by ATPase, on the concentration of the enzyme. ATP and dinitrophenol, has been studied.
