Abstract

The proton conductance and buffering capacity of Bacillus acidocaldarius, an organism that grows optimally at pH 3.5, were measured by an acid-pulse method. Conductance increased as the external pH was lowered from 6.0 to 3.5. The uncoupler CCCP increased the proton conductance, but became less effective as the pH was lowered.
