Protocol for Quantifying Zinc Flux in Cultured Cells using Fluorescent Indicators
Summary: Zinc (Zn2+) plays a vital role in the functioning of the cell. Cells have influx and efflux zinc transporters to regulate the levels of Zn2+ in the cytoplasm and organellar compartments to maintain homeostasis. We present a protocol to measure changes in cellular zinc concentrations using e...
