The activity of hydrogen ions (commonly expressed in terms of pH) has long been recognized as a parameter of fundamental importance in aqueous chemis try. Although the same would logically be expected to be true for that rather specialized branch of aqueous chemistry known as cell biology, the technical difficulties of measuring this parameter within the confines of the intact cell have greatly retarded experimental assessment of the roles intracellular pH (pHi) might play in regulating the behavior of cells. Fortunately, recent tech nical advances have provided cell biologists with a growing armory of tech niques with which to measure pHi (see References 46 and 57 for reviews), and their application has uncovered a large (and still growing) number of instances in which pHi changes accompany defined events in the lives of cells. In a total of nineteen genera these events include gamete activation and fertilization, cyst and spore germination, various examples of stimulus-response coupling, pro gression through the cell cycle, and changes in cellular energy balance (see References 13 and 47 for review). Most recently, pHi changes have been detected or inferred in the sequence of events involved in differentiation of the slime mold Dictyostelium (24,32), in the maturation of nematode spermatids to active spermatozoa (78), in the chemotactic response of the myxomycete Physarum (28), in motility initiation of mammalian spermatozoa (5), in germination of zoospores of the phycomycete Blastocladiella (74), and in mitogenic stimulation of numerous mammalian cell lines (see W. H. Moole naar, this volume). Conclusive evidence that these pHi changes play a regula tory role in the processes they accompany has proven difficult to achieve, in
