โœฆ Synopsis


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 inorganic anions, strongly implies that a common route exists for both inorganic anions and organic dianions, namely the anion-exchange Band 3 protein. 14C-Malonate which is nonmetabolized in the erythrocyte, could be a useful probe for monitoring anion-exchange in reconstituted Band 3 systems.

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

Residual, i.e., (ouabain, bumetanide, and EGTA)-insensitive K+ and Na+ influxes as well as effluxes of human red blood cells are enhanced in isotonic solutions of low (NaCl + KCl) concentration using sucrose to maintain constant osmolarity. Various carrier models were tested to fit the experimental
