Cell Signaling, Membrane Transport, & Membrane Potential — Medical Physiology: Principles for Clinical Medicine▶ 10:56So how does the cell fight that constant inward leakIt's constantly using metabolic energy, ATP, to power the sodium potassium pump, the Na plus K plus ATPase, and it pumps sodium…So it's like bailing water out of a leaky boatCellular Biology — Pathophysiology: The Biologic Basis for Disease in Adults and Children▶ 37:29They require active transportAnd the absolute undisputed champion of active transport is the sodium potassium pumpActive transport means the cell has to spend its hard -earned money, its ATP, to physically force molecules to move against their…Membrane Channels & Pumps — Biochemistry▶ 7:39And that phosphorylation event acts like a mechanical switch, forcing the protein to change its shapeAnd the absolute king of this class has to be the sodium potassium ATPase or just the sodium potassium pumpNo question
