It has been found that human red cell ghosts react differently in the presence of various sugars in the medium. The stability of spheric ghosts is preserved in solutions of sugars entering red cells by means of the common carrier. In media of other sugars the ghosts' shapes change to shrunken, crena
Kinetic parameters of [2-14C]malonate uptake by the human erythrocyte membrane have been determined as Km, 24 mM and turnover number, 5 X 10(4) s-1. The translocation of this organic dianion is concentration, pH and temperature dependent. Competitive inhibition of malonate uptake by eosin and inorga
