THE IMPORTANCE OF KNOWING BASIC BIOLOGY AND MECHANISMS
1) Proton pump (VHA): NOVEL PHYSIOLOGY AND MULTIPLE
LOCALIZATION WITHIN CORAL CELL TYPES
2) NKA AND PMCA ATPases: SPECIES SPECIFIC DIFFERENCES
3) Poten9al applica9ons for field studies
Implica$ons for how we study coral responses to environmental stress (or why large scale proteomics and transcriptomics is not a good
approach in corals –at least yet-‐)
General roles of ATPases
Use ATP to move ca6ons against the concentra6on gradient -‐ac've transport -‐secondary ac've transport -‐membrane poten'al

Differen'al 'ssue localiza'on of NKA in two coral species
NKA Nuclei
-‐Localiza'on and func'on is (obviously) key for interpre'ng data -‐(Protein and mRNA) Responses in one cell type might mask responses in another -‐Other regula'on (PTMs, e.g. phosphoryla'on) -‐Species specific differences (“a coral is not a coral is not a coral”) -‐Relevance for corals in the ‘real world’?
