The incubation of 14C-furosemide at high specific activity with intact red blood cells at 37 degrees C, pH 7.4, has enabled the furosemide binding sites to be characterized with respect to time course, affinity and specificity. The binding reaction was rapid, reversible and close to thermodynamic eq

"Old" human erythrocytes showed a 21.2% decrease in cell surface area and a 2% decrease in the number of WGA receptor sites, but a 27% increase in the distribution density of the WGA (lectin) receptor site, when compared with "young" human erythrocytes. For a list of lectin abbreviations, see Materi
The D-glucose transporter from human erythrocytes has been purified and reconstituted by Kasahara and Hinkle (J Biol Chem 252:7394-7390). Using a similar purification scheme, we have isolated the protein with 65% of the extracted phospholipid at a lipid-protein ratio of 14: 1 by weight. The KD (0.14
