Abstract excerpt
The ubiquitous plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE1) is rapidly activated in response to various extracellular signals. To understand how the intracellular Ca2+ is involved in this activation process, we investigated the effect of Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin on activity of the wild-type or mutant NHE1 expressed in the exchanger-deficient fibroblasts (PS120). In wild-type transfectants, a short (up to 1 min)...
