| Abstract | 31P NMR studies of have shown that encysting cells release polyphosphate into the encystment medium. Mature cysts contain low levels of polyphosphate, as do vegetative cells. Young cysts (7 days) show detectable levels of nucleotide diphosphates and triphosphate similar to those observed in vegetative cells. Mature cysts (90 days) show only excreted polyphosphate as well as a component which has a chemical shift of a phosphodiester. The inorganic phosphate peak in the cyst shows that the cyst milieu is liquid-like and that the intracellular environment maintains a pH between 6 and 7.5 in the presence of extracellular values from 4 to 9. |
