1. Sodium Ionsbind to the protine on the inside of the membrane. 2. ATP is phosphorilated into ADP. The phosphate is transferred to the protin and the conformation is changed. 3. The Sodium is put into th external space and the Potassium ions bind to the protein. 4. The phosphate group is lost.5. This causes the protein to snap ack to its original comformation. 6. The potassium ion diffuses into the cell and binds into its transmembrain domain.
Potassium is distributed by passive diffusion.
Sodium-Potassium pump uses ATP (energy) to pump sodium out of cells and potassium back in.
The sodium-potassium pump is a transmembrane protein in a cell membrane. It keeps large concentrations of sodium ions outside the cell, and potassium ions inside the cell. It does this by pumping the sodium ions out, and the potassium ions in.
In a sodium-potassium pump a carrier protein uses ATP in Active transport. The sodium ions are transported out of the cells and the potassium ions are transported into the cell.
The sodium-potassium pump is extremely important, especially in your nerve cells (neurons). The pump has 3 binding cites for sodium ions, and 2 binding cites for potassium ions. It uses these binding cites to pump sodium to the outside of a membrane and potassium to the inside. This an example of using ATP (energy) to go against the concentration gradient.

sodium-potassium pump
The sodium-potassium pump is a transmembrane protein in a cell membrane. It keeps large concentrations of sodium ions outside the cell, and potassium ions inside the cell. It does this by pumping the sodium ions out, and the potassium ions in.
The sodium/potassium pump, the sodium leak channel and the potassium leak channel.
3 sodium ions for 2 potassium ions.
In a sodium-potassium pump a carrier protein uses ATP in Active transport. The sodium ions are transported out of the cells and the potassium ions are transported into the cell.
The sodium potassium pump requires ATP - i.e. it is involved in active transport, not facilitated transport.
Sodium potassium pump prevents accumulation of K out side of cell and Na inside of cell.
