Kt is 74 /*M Fmax is 215 nmoles/(hr• cm2). Figure 3 presents data relating influx (measured by disappearance of 14C) to glycine concentration. The insert is a plot of influx as a function of ambient con- centration. Kinetic constants were evaluated from the Woolf plot presented in Figure 3. The Kt was 74 /AM and the Vma.\ was 215 nmoles/(hr-cm2). Dendraster does not take up glycylglycine from dilute solution. Animals were incubated for 24 hours in 20 /AM glycylglycine with a trace amount of 14C-glycine. Radioactivity in the medium decreased rapidly, as expected. Fluorescamine posi- tive material (expressed as equivalent glycylglycine concentration) increased slightly during early incubation, presumably reflecting efflux of unknown primary amines. After 24 hours, levels had decreased to about 75% of the original con- centration. This may reflect microbial activity or very slow uptake. In any case, uptake of glycylglycine either does not occur at all or is so slow as to be insignificant compared to uptake of neutral amino acids. Naturally occurring primary amines in interstitial water were determined using the fluorescamine technique and, in some cases, OPA. Determinations using the.
