Abstract
A system and method for controlling active ion transporters, such as sodium-potassium (Na/K) pumps to actively transports 3 Na+ and 2 K+ ions by consuming one ATP. The system and method provide an oscillating electric field that is effective in running the active ion-transport at their physiological running mode by consuming one ATP molecule to actively transport ion and to synthesize one ATP for each pumping cycle. The ATP molecule that is synthesized compensates for the ATP molecule that is consumed in actively transporting ions, resulting in a net-consumption of ATP that is significantly reduced, theoretically to zero.
