Calcium ATPase and sodium/potassium ATPase are both examples of:
Group of answer choices
a-symporters
b-"ABC" pumps ion channels
c-"p-type" pumps
d-facilitated diffusion
C- "p-type" pumps
P - type ATPases uses catalytic subunit to hydrolyze the ATP molecules and catalytic subunit also has binding site for the ligands and ion transport. Most of the members of the P-type ATPase family helps in uptake of the ions or efflux of the ions. But there is one member known Flippases which helps in moving phospholipids and maintain the asymmetry of the membrane. Examples of P-type pump are Na+/ K+ pump, calcium ATPase, proton-K+ pump etc. In humans these ATPases helps in secretion and absorption of nutrient in kideny and intestines. Also helps in muscle relaxation and physiological functions.
I hope this will help you if you like it then give me a thumbs up, thank you!
