The Mechanism of Energy Coupling in H<sup>+</sup>/Na<sup>+</sup>-Pumping Membrane Pyrophosphatase—Possibilities and Probabilities

Membrane pyrophosphatases (mPPases) found in plant vacuoles and some prokaryotes and protists are ancient cation pumps that couple pyrophosphate hydrolysis with the H<sup>+</sup> and/or Na<sup>+</sup> transport out of the cytoplasm. Because this function is reversible, mPPase...
