Sensitivity of the plant vacuolar malate channel to pH, Ca2+ and anion-channel blockers.

The organic anion malate is accumulated in the central vacuole of most plant cells. Malate has several important roles in plant vacuoles, such as the maintenance of charge balance and pH regulation, as an osmolyte involved in the generation of cell turgor, and as a storage form of CO2.
