  2. Sodium–potassium pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium–potassium_pump

    The sodium–potassium pump (sodium–potassium adenosine triphosphatase, also known as Na + /K +-ATPase, Na + /K + pump, or sodium–potassium ATPase) is an enzyme (an electrogenic transmembrane ATPase) found in the membrane of all animal cells. It performs several functions in cell physiology. The Na + /K +-ATPase enzyme is active (i.e. it ...

  6. Sodium in biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_in_biology

    The sodium–potassium pump, a critical enzyme for regulating sodium and potassium levels in cells. Sodium ions (Na +) are necessary in small amounts for some types of plants, [1] but sodium as a nutrient is more generally needed in larger amounts [1] by animals, due to their use of it for generation of nerve impulses and for maintenance of electrolyte balance and fluid balance.

  7. P-type ATPase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-type_ATPase

    The P-type ATPases, also known as E 1-E 2 ATPases, are a large group of evolutionarily related ion and lipid pumps that are found in bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. [1] P-type ATPases are α-helical bundle primary transporters named based upon their ability to catalyze auto- (or self-) phosphorylation (hence P) of a key conserved aspartate residue within the pump and their energy source ...

  8. Potassium in biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_in_biology

    The sodium–potassium pump is a critical enzyme for regulating sodium and potassium levels in cells. Potassium is the main intracellular ion for all types of cells, while having a major role in maintenance of fluid and electrolyte balance. [1] [2] Potassium is necessary for the function of all living cells and is thus present in all plant and ...

  9. Potassium channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_channel

    Potassium channels function to conduct potassium ions down their electrochemical gradient, doing so both rapidly (up to the diffusion rate of K + ions in bulk water) and selectively (excluding, most notably, sodium despite the sub-angstrom difference in ionic radius). [4] Biologically, these channels act to set or reset the resting potential in ...
