pHi regulatory ion transporters: an update on structure, regulation and cell function

Intracellular pH (pH_i) is a major regulator of various and critical cellular functions. A close regulation of pH_i is thus mandatory to maintain normal cellular activity. To this end, all cells express ion transporters that carry across their plasma membrane H⁺ or equivalent H⁺ into and out of the cell. Besides pH_i, these ion transporters are under the regulation of neurohormonal stimuli. This review summarises the molecular identity, regulation and function of the main membrane pH-regulatory ion transporters.

谷氨酸离子交换过程动态穿透曲线的分析

介绍了一种新的分析离子交换过程穿透曲线的方法，该方法采用特定的函数来描述穿透曲线以求出在不同实验条件下的离子交换过程的传质参数。该特定函数建立在吸附区传质概率的基础上，因此传质机制可以用函数的常数来表示，无需识别传质机理。采用该方法建立了ＮＨ４＋型阳离子交换树脂吸附谷氨酸的穿透曲线模型，以得到离子交换过程的传质参数。

Permeation study of the potassium channel from streptomyces Lividans

A three-state hopping model is established according to experiments to study permeation of an open-state potassium channel from Streptomyces Lividans (KcsA potassium channel). The master equations are used to characterize the dynamics of the system. In this model, ion conduction involves transitions of three states, with one three-ion state and two two-ion states in the selectivity filter respectively. In equilibrium, the well-known Nernst equation is deduced. It is further shown that the current follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics in steady state. According to the parameters provided by Nelson, the current-voltage relationship is proved to be ohmic and the current-concentration relationship is also obtained reasonably. Additional validation of the model in the characteristic time to reach the steady state for the potassium channel is also discussed. This model lays a possible physical basis for the permeation of ion channel, and opens an avenue for further research.
