    Tryptophan-N -formylated gramicidin causes growth inhibition of Plasmodium falciparum by inducing potassium efflux from infected erythrocytes

    In a study of the supposed selective action of tryptophan-N-formylated gramicidin (NFG) on infected erythrocytes as well as the relationship between the ability of NFG to inhibit parasite growth and its capacity...

    The influence of a fish oil-enriched diet on the phospholipid fatty acid turnover in the rabbit red cell membranein vivo

    The influence of the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) composition of the diet on the rate of fatty acid turnover of individual phospholipids in the erythrocyte membranein vivo was studied. Following modification...

    Localization of Phospholipids in Plasma Membranes of Mammalian Cells

    A transversal, asymmetric distribution of phospholipids is characteristic for most membrane systems investigated so far. Following a period in which an inventory was made of the asymmetry in various membrane s...

    Recognition and Elimination of Malaria-Infected Erythrocytes by a Modified Phospholipase A

    The erythrocyte plays an essential role in a particular part of the complex life cycle of Plasmodium, the malaria causing parasite, when it serves as a host cell in which the parasite feeds, grows and multipli...

    Phospholipid Localization and Mobility in Plasmodium Infected Erythrocytes

    Upon infection of erythrocytes with Plasmodium, the malaria causing parasite, the red cell membrane undergoes a variety of changes. Proteins, encoded by the parasitic DNA are inserted into the membrane (Howard...

    The Interaction of Pancreatic Phospholipase A2 with Negatively Charged Substrates — Application: The Transformation of Soluble Phospholipase A2 into a Highly Penetrating “Membrane-Bound” Form

    This study deals with some kinetic properties of porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 (PLA2) acting on neutral and anionic substrates. Short—chain diacylglycerosulfates possess a much higher affinity to the enzyme...

    Some Aspects of the Ca-Pump in Human Red Blood Cells

    HRBCs are endowed with a membrane-bound system which extrudes Ca2+ ions against a large gradient from the cytosol to the medium (Schatzmann, 1966; Schatzmann and Vincenzi, 1969; Lee and Shin, 1969; Olson and Cazo...

    Lipoprotein Integrity and Enzymatic Activity of the Erythrocyte Membrane

    In the last few years, a variety of methods for solubili-zing proteins from erythrocyte stroma have appeared in the literature. Nearly all depend on: i) detergent action, in some cases combined with acidic or ...

    Effects of Organic Solvents on the Adenosine Triphosphatase Activity of Erythrocyte Ghosts

    THE involvement of phospholipids in the adenosine triphosphatase activity of human erythrocytes was demonstrated by Schatzmann1, who found that treatment with phospholipase C reduced the activity of both the Mg2+
