Abstract

The effect of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) on the ATP-dependent transport of S-dinitrophenyl glutathione (Dnp-SG) by inside-out vesicles prepared from human erythrocytes and by intact erythrocytes has been studied. It is demonstrated that the transport of Dnp-SG is not inhibited by GSSG in either intact erythrocytes or in inside-out vesicles. These results suggest that Dnp-SG and GSSG are transported out of human erythrocytes by separate systems.
