Abstract
The activation of the glycolysis of resting muscle by increased extracellular potassium is dependent upon the simultaneous presence of calcium, but not of sodium ions. This regulation of metabolism by a membrane characteristic seems to act upon an early link in the glycolytic enzyme chain.Keywords
