Biochemical Studies on Active Transport
The active transport process, so important in cell function, has been studied in the past with intact cells. Models which have arisen from this work all depend on: first, a specific protein to recognize the substrate; second, translocation of the substrate across the cell membrane; third, release of substrate within the cell and restoration of the system to its initial state. These steps are ad...
متن کاملMechanisms by which mitochondria transport calcium.
It has been firmly established that the rapid uptake of Ca2+ by mitochondria from a wide range of sources is mediated by a uniporter which permits transport of the ion down its electrochemical gradient. Several mechanisms of Ca2+ efflux from mitochondria have also been extensively discussed in the literature. Energized mitochondria must expend a significant amount of energy to transport Ca2+ ag...
متن کاملTransport of Calcium Ions into Mitochondria
To uptake calcium ions of mitochondria is of significant functional connotation for cells, because calcium ions in mitochondria are involved in energy production, regulatory signals transfer, and mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening and even programmed cell death of apoptosis, further playing more roles in plant productivity and quality. Cytoplasmic calcium ions access into outer ...
متن کاملStudies on the Active Transport of Calcium in Human Red Cells
The Ca(++) transport mechanism in the red cell membrane was studied in resealed ghost cells. It was found that the red cell membrane can transport Ca(++) from inside the cell into the medium against great concentration gradient ratios. Tracing the movement of (45)Ca infused inside red cells indicated that over 95% of all Ca(++) in the cells was transported into media in 20 min incubation under ...
متن کاملMitochondria move in on calcium
Transport if loaded uclear transporters can be viewed as taxis that move cargo across the nuclear envelope. On page 649, Plafker et al. report that importin-11, a nuclear transport receptor , may be an especially selective cabbie. Importin-11 transports UbcM2, a ubiquitin (Ub)-conjugating enzyme, but it does so only when the enzyme is charged with a Ub at its active site. UbcM2 is an E2 enzyme,...
