"Anopheles gambiae larvae ( Diptera: Culicidae) live in freshwater with low Na+ concentrations yet they use Na+ for alkalinization of the alimentary canal, for electrophoretic amino acid uptake and for nerve function. The metabolic pathway by which larvae accomplish these functions has anionic and cationic components that interact and allow the larva to conserve Na+ while excreting H+ and HCO3-," scientists writing in the Journal of Experimental Biology report.
"The anionic pathway consists of a metabolic CO2 diffusion process, carbonic anhydrase and Cl-/HCO3- exchangers; it provides weak HCO3- and weaker CO32- anions to the lumen. The cationic pathway consists...
