AbstractThe anion requirement for toxic action of diphtheria toxin and modeccin was studied. In Cl−‐free Hepes buffer made isotonic with mannitol, cells were insensitive to diphtheria toxin and modeccin. Just 2 mM NaCl was sufficient to obtain full toxic activity of modeccin, whereas 140 mM NaCl was required for maximal intoxication with diphtheria toxin. Br−could substitute for Cl−. NO3−, I−and ClO3−were less efficient than Cl−, whereas SO42−and SCN−were unable to replace Cl−. Cl−deprivation both reduced the ability of cells to bind diphtheria toxin and prevented bound toxin from intoxicating the cells. The binding of modeccin was not reduced. SITS (4‐acetamide‐4′‐isothio‐cyano‐stilbene‐2,2′‐disulfonic acid), an inhibitor of Cl−entry, protected against diphtheria toxin and modeccin, indicating tha
