Animals react to threats by increasing their heart rate. Wu et al. show that mitochondrial calcium uptake via a highly selective ion channel, the mitochondrial calcium uniporter, stimulates metabolism in cardiac pacemaker cells and is essential for physiological pulse acceleration but not resting heart rate.
