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

A method is described for the preparation or removal of erythrocyte membranes from hemolysates by a glucose solution. The procedure is simple and rapid, requiring centrifugation at 8000g for 2 min. The preparation has microscopic shape and two-dimensional peptide patterns similar to those of the mem
## Abstract The inhibition of glucose transport by the nonβionizable localβanesthetic benzylalcohol is of the mixed type and independent of pH. The affinity of benzylalcohol to the free carrier is about three times larger than that to the carrierβglucose complex.
## Abstract In glucose exchange transport into red blood cells the rate of glucose uptake showed two pH dependent maxima, with the larger at approximately pH 7.5 and the smaller one at pH 3. In the studied pH range the relation between the rate of glucose uptake and the substrate concentration fol
