Pumping Ca2+ up H+ gradients: a Ca2(+)-H+ exchanger without a membrane.
Cellular processes are exquisitely sensitive to H+ and Ca2+ ions because of powerful ionic interactions with proteins. By regulating the spatial and temporal distribution of intracellular [Ca2+] and [H+], cells such as cardiac myocytes can exercise control over their biological function. A well-esta...
