The electrogenicity of the Na+/K+-ATPase poses challenges for computation in highly active spiking cells

The electrogenicity of the Na+/K+-ATPase poses challenges for computation in highly active spiking cells

Quantitative estimates of metabolic costs in this study are based on the ATP that is required to fuel the Na+/K+ pump. This includes the cost of the restoration of sodium and potassium ions that flow to support action potentials, resting…
