The cation selectivity and its relation to the inward-going rectification of the immature egg cell membrane of a starfish,Nordora punctiformis, were studied and the following results were obtained. (1) When the external saline contains usual ion species the cell membrane at rest is predominantly permeable to K ions. The K chord conductancegkdepends on the electrochemical potential of K ions, ΔV=V−EK′and the external K concentration [K+]oby $$g_4 = A\left[ {1 + \exp \left( {\frac{{\Delta V - \Delta V_h }}{\upsilon }} \right)} \right]^{ - 1} ([K^ + ]_0 )^{\tfrac{1}{2}} $$ $$(\Delta V_h \underset{\raise0.3em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle\cdot}$}}{ \doteq } - 15mV,\upsilon \underset{\raise0.3em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle\cdot}$}}{ \doteq } 7mV)$$ . (2) The permeability sequence of monovalent cations and the permeability ratiosPx/PKof the cell membrane at rest obtained with membrane tpotential measurements are, T1 (1.5)>K(1.0)>Rb(0.3 to 0.4)>NH4(0.03 to 0.04)>Na, Cs. (3) Current-voltage relations obtained when the external solution contains Rb+, Cs+or T1+in addition to K+show: (a) Rb+and Cs+decrease the K conductance and the rate of decrease becomes greater with an increasing hyperpolarization, thereby the inward-going rectification is reduced; (b) the membrane conductance shows an ‘anomalous mole fraction dependence’ in Tl-K media, i.e., the conductance becomes minimum at a certain mole fraction; and (c) the current-voltage relation often shows a transitiontype behavior suggesting that the membrane undergoes metastable states during an ncrease of hyperpolarization.
