Journal ArticleDOI
Red cell amino acid transport Evidence for the presence of system Gly in guinea pig reticulocytes
TL;DR: Guinea pig reticulocytes are shown to possess an Na+-dependent glycine transporter which also requires Cl- for activity, and the properties of this carrier closely resemble those of System Gly previously demonstrated in pigeon and human erythrocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid entry of D-glucose into erythrocytes from bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus)
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of normal, glutathione-deficient and arginase-deficient sheep erythrocytes by 1H-NMR spectroscopy.

TL;DR: A comparison of the intensity of GSH resonances in spectra for normal and GSH-deficient erythrocytes with GSH levels determined spectrophotometrically following reaction with the nonspecific thiol reagent 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) (DTNB indicates that either not all of the GSH determined with Ellman's reagent is free and observable by 1H-NMR or that not all
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between cell age, glutathione and cation concentrations in sheep erythrocytes with a normal and defective transport system for amino acids
TL;DR: Loss of GSH from amino acid transport-deficient erythrocytes was paralleled by the progressive appearance of Heinz bodies in the cells, indicating an increased susceptibility to oxidative damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleoside uptake by red blood cells from a primitive vertebrate, the Pacific hagfish (Eptatretus stouti), is mediated by a nitrobenzylthioinosine-insensitive transport system.
TL;DR: The presence of this type of carrier in a primitive vertebrate suggests that such transporters have a broad biological distribution and that they pre-date or arose at an early stage of vertebrate evolution.
