## Abstract The ability to deliver calcium to the osteoid is critical to osteoblast function as a regulator of bone calcification. There are two known transmembrane proteins capable of translocating calcium out of the osteoblast, the Na^+^/Ca^2+^ exchanger (NCX) and the plasma membrane Ca^2+^‐ATPas
The regulation of cytosolic Ca 2+ has been investigated in growing root-hair cells of Sinapis alba L. with special emphasis on the role of the plasmamembrane Ca 2 +-ATPase. For this purpose, erythrosin B was used to inhibit the Ca2+-ATPase, and the Ca 2+ ionophore A23187 was applied to manipulate cy
