The Relationship of Membrane ATPase Activity to Ouabain-Insensitive Sodium Transport in Human Red Cells

Abstract

A component of active sodium efflux has been described by Hoffman and Kregenow (1966, Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 137, 566–567) which is not inhibited by ouabain but is inhibited by ethacrynic acid. This has been called "Pump II" and these authors have produced evidence suggesting that the process does not require adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for its energy supply. Studies of membrane adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) from human erythrocytes have …
