Notes:
Weak acid distribution methods demonstrate that mitogenic levels of concanavalin A induce an intravesicular alkalinization of isolated thymocyte membrane vesicles. Experiments with chemical reagents that crosslink the high affinity concanavalin A receptor and extensive correlation with known cellular events suggest that a “membrane Bohr effect” may participate in the initiation of mitogenesis.
