The Functioning of Na<sup>+</sup>-ATPases from Protozoan Parasites: Are These Pumps Targets for Antiparasitic Drugs?
The ENA ATPases (from <i>exitus natru</i>: the exit of sodium) belonging to the P-type ATPases are structurally very similar to the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca<sup>2+</sup>-ATPase (SERCA); they exchange Na<sup>+</sup> for H<sup>+</sup> and, therefor...
