Facilitation by intracellular carbonic anhydrase of Na+–HCO3− co‐transport but not Na+/H+ exchange activity in the mammalian ventricular myocyte
Carbonic anhydrase enzymes (CAs) catalyse the reversible hydration of CO2 to H+ and HCO3− ions. This catalysis is proposed to be harnessed by acid/base transporters, to facilitate their transmembrane flux activity, either through direct protein–protein binding (a ‘transport metabolon’) or local func...
