Na+-K+ ATPase pumps in the luminal membrane of proximal tubule epithelial cells that move Na+ from inside the cell into the tubule and K+ from the tubule lumen into the cell Which would occur as a result of a decrease in the total body content of Na+?, The Na+/K+ ATPase pump exists in all cells. Which of the following statements is correct about the Na+/K+ ATPase pump? a) is a lipid molecule in the membrane. b) pumps 3 Na+ ions for every 2 K+ ions out. c) is responsible for establishing and maintaining the concentration of Na+ and K+ in cels. d) only a and b are correct e) a, b and c are all correct, Which part of the sodium-potassium pump ( Na =/K+ ATPase ) has an ATP binding site and 3 other sites which have a high affinity for Na+ ion Answer the part of the protein that faces the cytoplasm (inner part), d) Na /K+ ATPase pump: Answer: a) Malate-aspartate shuttle NADH generated in the cytosol must be transported across the mitochondrial membrane in order to be oxidized by the electron transport chain,which can be used to facilitate movement of cytosolic NADH into the mitochodria.this meshanism is called shuttle mechanism.
