THE ROLE OF ACIDOCALCISOMES IN PARASITIC PROTISTS

Acidocalcisomes are acidic organelles with a high concentration of phosphorus present as pyrophosphate (PP(i)) and polyphosphate (poly P) complexed with calcium, and other cations. The acidocalcisome membrane contains a number of pumps (Ca(2+)-ATPase, V-H(+)-ATPase, H(+)-PPase), exchangers (Na(+)/H(...
