Ion Transport and Current are Linked to Membrane Proteins and Epithelium Transport
2024-05-26
Abstract excerpt
Membrane proteins play a significant role in ion transport across cell membranes. They act as channels or transporters that allow ions to move across the membrane. Channels are typically selective for specific ions, while transporters move multiple types of ions. These proteins use energy from ATP or the electrochemical gradient to move ions against their concentration gradient. The movement of ions through these...
