How many H+ ions are transported by the vacuole H+-ATPase pump and the vacuole H+-phosphatase pump per hydrolysis of ATP and pyrophosphate respectively?
How many H+ ions are transported by the vacuole H+-ATPase pump and the vacuole H+-phosphatase pump per hydrolysis of ATP and pyrophosphate respectively? Correct Answer 2, 1
The vacuole H+-ATPase pump and the vacuole H+-phosphatase pump are membrane proteins on the vacuole membrane that helps in the active transport of H+ ions inside the vacuole. With the hydrolysis of one ATP molecule, two H+ ions can pass through the H+-ATPase pump. However, with the hydrolysis of one pyrophosphate molecule, one H+ ion can pass through the H+-pyrophospatase pump.
