Facilitated transport of amino acids across organic phases and the human erythrocyte membrane.

چکیده
1. An artificial facilitated amino-acid-transfer process operating across a chloroform phase is reported. 2. This process utilizes a family of bis(salicylamidato)copper(II) complexes. 3. A mechanism is proposed for this process and for its sensitivity towards cyanide and bathophenanthroline sulphonate. 4. Facilitated transfer of L-leucine in human erythrocytes has been shown to be inhibited by bathophenanthroline sulphonate.

Organic-acid transport in resealed haemoglobin-containing human erythrocyte 'ghosts'.
The transport of organic acids across the membrane of resealed haemoglobin-containing erythrocyte 'ghosts' prepared by a dialysis technique has been studied. The present work forms part of studies directed towards the use of erythrocyte cellular carriers in enzyme-replacement therapy of inherited metabolic diseases. Oxalic acid, glycollic acid and glyoxylic acid were taken as representative of ...
متن کاملBand 3 protein: structure, flexibility and function.
The electroneutral exchange of chloride and bicarbonate across the human erythrocyte membrane is facilitated by Band 3, a 911 amino acid glycoprotein. The 43 kDa amino-terminal cytosolic domain binds the cytoskeleton, haemoglobin and glycolytic enzymes. The 52 kDa carboxyl-terminal membrane domain mediates anion transport. The protein is a functional dimer, in which the two subunits probably in...
متن کاملSTRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTS OF ORGANIC ANION TRANSPORTING POLYPEPTIDE MEDIATED TRANSPORT by
The organic anion transporting polypeptides (human: OATP; other: Oatp) form a mammalian transporter superfamily that mediates the transport of structurally unrelated compounds across the cell membrane. Members in this superfamily participate in the absorption, distribution and excretion of many endogenous and exogenous substances including a number of medications and environmental toxicants. Po...
متن کاملTHE CARRIER FACILITATED TRANSPORT OF THE LITHIUM IONS BY A SERIES OF NON-CYCLIC SYNTHETIC IONOPHORES
The carrier facilitated transport of lithium picrate was studied using a series of non-cyclic polyethers containing different end groups and chain lengths through Bulk Liquid Membrane (BLM) and Supported Liquid Membrane (SLM) systems. The various membrane supports used are viz. PTFE, cellulose nitrate, and dialysis membrane and onion membrane. The amount of Li+ transported depends upon the stru...
متن کاملExtraction of organic acids using a supported liquid membrane.
Liquid membranes usually consist of an extracting agent (carrier) in an organic solvent which separates "feed" and "stripping" phases containing aqueous solutions of the solute of interest and a stripping agent, respectively. In supported liquid membranes (SLMs) the membrane solution is immobilised into a thin solid microporous support, between the feed and stripping phases where transport is f...
