Intestinal epithelial cells pump glucose into the cell against its concentration gradient using the Nat-glucose symporter. Recall
that the Na+ concentration is significantly higher outside the cell than inside the cell. The symporter couples the "downhill"
transport of two Na+ ions into the cell to the "uphill" transport of glucose into the cell.
AGgluc
If the Na+ concentration outside the cell ([Na+]out) is 143 mM and that inside the cell ([Na+]in) is 19.0 mM, and the cell
potential is -53.0 mV (inside negative), calculate the maximum energy available for pumping a mole of glucose into the cell.
Assume the temperature is 37 °C.
