Summary
Escherichia coli endotoxin inhibited the fluoride-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity of liver plasma membranes enriched with bile canaliculi. Inhibition was of a mixed competitive and uncompetitive type. This effect, which may result from changes of membrane organization, may have relevance in the understanding of endotoxin-cell membrane interactions.
