A flagellar K(+)-dependent Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger keeps Ca(2+) low in sea urchin spermatozoa

The metabolism, flagellar beating, and acrosome reaction of spermatozoa are regulated by ion flux across the plasma membrane. As is true of most cells, swimming sperm maintain intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations at submicromolar levels. Here we describe a K(+)-dependent Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (suNCK...
