Difference between Electrochemical gradient and Sodium-calcium exchanger

Electrochemical gradient vs. Sodium-calcium exchanger

An electrochemical gradient is a gradient of electrochemical potential, usually for an ion that can move across a membrane. The sodium-calcium exchanger (often denoted Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, NCX, or exchange protein) is an antiporter membrane protein that removes calcium from cells.

Similarities between Electrochemical gradient and Sodium-calcium exchanger

Electrochemical gradient and Sodium-calcium exchanger have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Active transport, Antiporter, Archaea, Ion, Muscle contraction, Na+/K+-ATPase.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Active transport

Active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane from a region of their lower concentration to a region of their higher concentration—in the direction against the concentration gradient.

Antiporter

An antiporter (also called exchanger or counter-transporter) is a cotransporter and integral membrane protein involved in secondary active transport of two or more different molecules or ions across a phospholipid membrane such as the plasma membrane in opposite directions.

Archaea

Archaea (or or) constitute a domain of single-celled microorganisms.

Ion

An ion is an atom or molecule that has a non-zero net electrical charge (its total number of electrons is not equal to its total number of protons).

Muscle contraction

Muscle contraction is the activation of tension-generating sites within muscle fibers.

Na+/K+-ATPase

-ATPase (sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase, also known as the pump or sodium–potassium pump) is an enzyme (an electrogenic transmembrane ATPase) found in the plasma membrane of all animal cells.

Electrochemical gradient and Sodium-calcium exchanger Comparison

Electrochemical gradient has 92 relations, while Sodium-calcium exchanger has 35. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 5.51% = 7 / (92 + 35).
