In quinoa, class-1 HKT proteins load this element into bladder cells. Variations in hydrogen concentration in the brain cause acid-sensing pH sensor proteins to mainly transport this element. Paralytic shellfish poisoning occurs when alkaloids like saxitoxin block the transport of this element. A symporter of glucose and this element called SGLT2 is found in proximal tubules. Subunits of proteins that conduct this element contain six transmembrane passes and are voltage-gated. An ion of this element enters neurons during action potential firing. Blockers for this element’s channels can be used to treat arrhythmia. Hydrolysis of ATP pumps three atoms of this element out of cells against potassium. For 10 points, name this element found alongside chloride in table salt. ■END■
