Pyrophosphate Stimulates the Phosphate-Sodium Symporter of <italic toggle="yes">Trypanosoma brucei</italic> Acidocalcisomes and <italic toggle="yes">Saccharomyces cerevisiae</italic> Vacuoles

ABSTRACT Inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) is a by-product of biosynthetic reactions and has bioenergetic and regulatory roles in a variety of cells. Here we show that PPi and other pyrophosphate-containing compounds, including polyphosphate (polyP), can stimulate sodium-dependent depolarization of the...
