Calcium Activates an Electrogenic Proton Pump in Neurospora Plasma Membrane 1

Roger R Lew 1,2
PMCID: PMC1061976  PMID: 16666998

Abstract

Calcium ionophoresis into coenocytic cells of Neurospora crassa activates the plasma membrane proton pump as measured by current-voltage analysis. This is direct evidence that intracellular calcium regulates the activity of a key transport enzyme found in higher plants and fungi.
