Fertilization and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate induce pH changes in acidic Ca(2+) stores in sea urchin eggs.

The second messenger nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) releases Ca(2+) from the acidic Ca(2+) stores of many organisms, including those of the sea urchin egg. We investigated whether the pH within the lumen of these acidic organelles changes in response to stimuli. Fertilization...
