Abstract
The coding region of the high affinity Na+/d-glucose cotransporter (SGLT1) was inserted into the eukaryotic expression vector GFP-N1 under the control of a CMV promoter. The plasmid was then stably transfected into a Chinese hamster ovary cell line (CHO). Transcription and synthesis of SGLT1 were proved by Northern and Western blot analyses. Transport activities of the transfected cells (G6D3) were examined by measuring the sodium-dependent uptake of alpha-methyl[14C]d-glucoside (AMG). Kinetic analysis revealed a Vmax of 10.3 nmol/min/mg (total cell protein) and a Km of 0.26+/-0.09 mM, respectively. The concentration of phlorizin required to inhibit AMG uptake by 50% in the presence of 0.1 mM AMG was 2.35+/-1.84 microM. Electrophysiological studies showed that AMG induces a significant depolarization of membrane voltage in stably transfected CHO cells, suggesting an electrogenic Na-AMG symport. Immunoprecipitation with an antipeptide antibody yielded a nearly homogeneous polypeptide with a molecular mass of about 72 kDa. The amount of SGLT1 present in the CHO cell plasma membranes represents at least 1% of membrane protein, which is about 30-100 times higher than in natural sources, such as renal brush border membranes. In conclusion, the stably transfected G6D3 cells with a markedly high SGLT1 expression can serve as a promising model for studying cellular events related to Na+/d-glucose cotransport and for analyzing the structure and function of the cotransporter itself.

Abstract
To reinvestigate the "hydrolase-related transport" concept, neutral alpha-D-glucosidase, a membrane-bound disaccharidase of renal proximal tubule, was first purified from brush-border membranes and then asymmetrically reincorporated into egg phosphatidylcholine vesicles. Proteolytic treatments and immunotitration studies demonstrated that this enzyme was integrated in native and artificial membrane vesicles with a similar topology. The uptake of free glucose and glucose produced by maltose hydrolysis was studied using 1) proteoliposomes containing integrated neutral alpha-D-glucosidase, in combination with other membrane proteins, and 2) proteoliposomes containing only the other membrane proteins but incubated in a medium containing neutral alpha-D-glucosidase in its hydrophilic form. No modification was observed in the uptake of free D-glucose or D-glucose produced by maltose hydrolysis, regardless of enzyme localization. In contrast to previous findings on the hydrolase-related transport concept, these results rule out any participation of neutral alpha-D-glucosidase in the transport of free glucose or glucose produced by maltose hydrolysis. Hydrolytic activity and transmembrane transport appear to be two independent and sequential steps.

Abstract
Diarrhoea may occur in up to 10% of patients with ulcerative colitis treated with olsalazine, the azolinked dimer of 5-aminosalicylic acid. However, this symptom often disappears despite continued drug medication. To examine reversibility of and adaptation to olsalazine effects on intestinal absorption, rats were fed olsalazine (4 mg/100 g body weight/day) for 0 (controls), 12, 24, and 32 days. Jejunal, ileal, and colonic loops were perfused in situ with buffer or olsalazine (11.6 mM) in a pendular perfusion system. Water and electrolyte absorption was inhibited in all intestinal segments (p less than 0.001). In the proximal small intestine, however, sodium absorption was inhibited by 61%, whereas chloride and potassium absorptions were turned into net secretion. In contrast, in ileal and colonic segments sodium, chloride, and potassium absorptions were turned into a net secretion. All inhibitory effects were reversible within a short time. Intestinal absorption remained inhibitable compared with controls (p = not significant) after chronic administration of olsalazine even for 1 month. Jejunal monosaccharide absorption was not altered by acute olsalazine perfusion. In the ileum, glucose absorption was significantly inhibited, but the inhibitory capacity of acute olsalazine application decreased significantly (p less than 0.05) depending on duration of olsalazine pretreatment (51% (controls) versus 38% (32 days)). These results point to a complex, acute, but fully reversible effect of olsalazine on intestinal passive and chloride-coupled absorptive processes. Since a mucosal adaptation to these diarrheogenic effects does not occur, the resulting increase in fluid load on the diseased colon may be important in the pathogenesis of olsalazine-related diarrhoea.

Abstract
Using the fast sampling, rapid filtration apparatus (FSRFA) recently developed in our laboratory (Berteloot et al., 1991, J. Membrane Biol. 122:111-125), we have studied the kinetic characteristics of Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport in brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from normal adult human jejunum. True initial rates of transport have been determined at both 20 and 35 degrees C using a dynamic approach which involves linear-regression analysis over nine time points equally spaced over 4.5 or 2.7 sec, respectively. When the tracer rate of transport was studied as a function of unlabeled substrate concentrations added to the incubation medium, a displacement curve was generated which can be analyzed by nonlinear regression using equations which take into account the competitive inhibition of tracer flux by unlabeled substrate. This approach was made imperative since at 20 degrees C, in the presence of high substrate concentrations or 1 mM phlorizin, no measurable diffusion was found and the resultant zero slope values cannot be expressed into a classical v versus S plot. All together, our results support the existence of a single Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport system in these membranes for which Na+ is mandatory for uptake. This conclusion is at variance with that of a recent report using the same preparation (Harig et al., 1989. Am J. Physiol. 256:8618-8623). Since the discrepancy seems difficult to resolve on the consideration of experimental conditions alone, we have determined the kinetic parameters of D-glucose transport using one time point measurements and linear transformations of the Michaelis-Menten equation, in order to investigate the potential problems of such a widely used procedure. Comparing these approaches, we conclude that: (i) the dynamic uptake measurements give a better understanding of the different uptake components involved: (ii) it does not matter whether a dynamic or a one time point approach is chosen to generate the uptake data provided that a nonlinear-regression analysis with proper weighting of the data points is performed; (iii) analytical procedures which rely on linearization of Michaelian process(es) are endowed with a number of difficulties which make them unsuitable to resolve multicomponent systems in transport studies. A more general procedure which uses a nonlinear-regression analysis and a displacement curve is proposed since we demonstrate that it is far superior in terms of rapidity, data interpretation, and visual information.

Abstract
Kinetic studies of cotransport mechanisms have so far been limited to the conventional steady-state approach which does not allow in general to resolve either isomerization or rate-limiting steps and to determine the values of the individual rate constants for the elementary reactions involved along a given transport pathway. Such questions can only be answered using presteady-state or relaxation experiments which, for technical reasons, have not yet been introduced into the field of cotransport kinetics. However, since two recent reports seem compatible with the observation of such transient kinetics, it would appear that theoretical studies are needed to evaluate the validity of such claims and to critically evaluate the expectations from a presteady-state approach. We thus report such a study which was performed on a simple four-state mechanism of carrier-mediated transport. The time-dependent equation for zero-trans substrate uptake was thus derived and then extended to models with p intermediary steps. It is concluded that (p-1) exponential terms will describe the approach to the steady state but that such equations have low analytical value since the parameters of the flux equation cannot be expressed in terms of the individual rate constants of the elementary reactions for models with p greater than 5. We thus propose realistic simplifications based on the time-scale separation hypothesis which allows replacement of the rate constants of the rapid steps by their equilibrium constants, thereby reducing the complexity of the kinetic system. Assuming that only one relaxation can be observed, this treatment generates approximate models for which analytical expressions can easily be derived and simulated through computer modeling. When performed on the four-state mechanism of carrier-mediated transport, the simulations demonstrate the validity of the approximate solutions derived according to this hypothesis. Moreover, our approach clearly shows that presteady-state kinetics, should they become applicable to (co)transport kinetics, could be invaluable in determining more precise transport mechanisms.

Abstract
The effect of zinc on sodium coupled glucose uptake was studied in pig intestinal brush border membrane vesicles. In this system zinc inhibited glucose uptake and appeared to have a Ki of 0.25 mM. When tested by spectrophotometry, electron microscopy and protein determination following centrifugation, no evidence of significant vesicle aggregation was found with 0.5 mM zinc treatment. Zinc inhibition of glucose uptake persisted when the vesicle membrane potential was clamped with identical KCl concentrations inside and outside the vesicles in the presence of valinomycin. Variation of the glucose and sodium concentrations gave results indicating that zinc reduces glucose affinity for the carrier but not sodium binding to the transporter. The glucose inhibitory effect was not due to a rapid dissipation of the sodium gradient as zinc failed to affect sodium uptake in the absence of glucose. Zinc also failed to inhibit glucose efflux from vesicles under isotopic exchange conditions, when glucose and sodium concentrations were identical inside and outside vesicles. The t1/2 of glucose inhibition by zinc was relatively long, i.e. 6 min. We conclude that zinc acts as an inhibitor of glucose transport by interacting with the sodium-glucose co-transporter. The long zinc incubation time required to achieve maximal inhibition of glucose transport suggests that this interaction takes place within vesicles.

Abstract
1. A simple and rapid method for the reconstitution of Na+-dependent neutral amino acid transport activity from bovine renal brush border membranes is described. 2. The neutral detergent decanoyl-N-methylglucamide ('MEGA-10') was employed to solubilize the membrane protein. This obviated the necessity for a prolonged dialysis step. 3. The properties of amino acid transport in these vesicles were similar to those observed in native membranes. 4. This should be a useful procedure in the eventual identification and isolation of amino acid transport proteins.

Abstract
The cotransport of sodium ion and alpha-methyl glucose, a non-metabolized hexose, was studied in rabbit proximal tubule cells cultured in defined medium. The rate of uptake of alpha-methyl glucose shows saturation kinetics, in which Km, but not Vmax, is dependent upon the Na+ concentration in the medium. The transport system was found to be of the high-affinity type, characteristic of the straight portion of the proximal tubule. Analysis of the rates of initial uptake within the context of a generalized cotransport model, suggests that two Na+ ions are bound in the activation of the hexose transport. The steady-state level of accumulation of alpha-methyl glucose also depends upon sodium concentration, consistent with the initial rate findings. The uptake of alpha-methyl glucose is inhibited by other sugars with the relative potencies of D-glucose greater than alpha-methyl glucose greater than D-galactose = 3-O methylglucose. L-Glucose, D-fructose, and D-mannose show no inhibition. Phlorizin inhibits the alpha-methyl glucose uptake with a Ki of 9 X 10(-6) M. Ouabain (10(-3) M) decreases the steady-state alpha-methyl glucose accumulation by 60%. In the absence of sodium, the accumulation of alpha-methyl glucose is 7-fold less than at 142 mM Na+, reaching a level comparable to the sodium-independent accumulation of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose. These findings are similar to those observed in the proximal tubule of the intact kidney.

Abstract
1. Brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV) were isolated from swine mid-intestine by a MgCl2 precipitation and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. 2. Transport of D-glucose and L-alanine were Na+-stimulated and into an osmotically sensitive space. 3. Estimates of kinetic parameters for Na+-dependent D-glucose transport were: apparent Kt = 1.8 mM and Jmax = 16.8 nmol/mg protein/min. 4. Results of experiments with the delta pH sensitive fluorescent probe 9-aminoacridine indicated independent mechanisms for Na+-dependent glucose transport and Na+/H+ exchange. 5. This study demonstrates that pig BBMV provide a useful model for investigating intestinal membrane transport.

Abstract
Experiments were performed to determine the factors which contribute to the transmembrane pH gradient (delta pH) and the potential gradient (delta psi) in apical plasma membrane vesicles isolated from bovine tracheal epithelium. As indicated by the accumulation of 14C-methylamine, the vesicles maintained a delta pH (inside acidic) which was dependent upon the external pH. The delta pH was also proportional to the ionic strength of the suspending medium, suggesting that the H+ distribution was dictated by a Donnan potential. Measurements of the distribution of 86Rb+ demonstrated an electrical potential gradient across the vesicle membrane, inside negative which was proportional to the medium ionic strength. delta pH changed in parallel with delta psi in response to a variety of imposed conditions. These results are compatible with the existence of a H+ conductance in the vesicle membrane. Thus the endogenous electrical and proton gradients may be manipulated and used as a general experimental tool to complement kinetic analysis in investigations of transport mechanisms using isolated vesicle preparations.

Abstract
Target sizes of the renal sodium-D-glucose cotransport system in brush-border membranes of calf kidney cortex were estimated by radiation inactivation. In brush-border vesicles irradiated at -50 degrees C with 1.5 MeV electron beams, sodium-dependent phlorizin binding, and Na+-dependent D-glucose tracer exchange decreased exponentially with increasing doses of radiation (0.4-4.4 Mrad). Inactivation of phlorizin binding was due to a reduction in the number of high-affinity phlorizin binding sites but not in their affinity. The molecular weight of the Na+-dependent phlorizin binding unit was estimated to be 230 000 +/- 38 000. From the tracer exchange experiments a molecular weight of 345 000 +/- 24 500 was calculated for the D-glucose transport unit. The validity of these target size measurements was established by concomitant measurements of two brush-border enzymes, alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyltransferase, whose target sizes were found to be 68 570 +/- 2670 and 73 500 +/- 2270, respectively. These findings provide further evidence for the assumption that the sodium-D-glucose cotransport system is a multimeric structure, in which distinct complexes are responsible for phlorizin binding and D-glucose translocation.

Abstract
We have investigated the symmetry of Na+-succinate cotransport in rabbit renal brush-border membrane vesicles. Succinate influx and efflux kinetics were measured under voltage-clamped conditions using [14C]succinate and a rapid filtration procedure. Both influx and efflux were Na+-dependent, saturable, temperature-sensitive, and influenced by the trans Na+ and succinate concentrations. The system was judged to be asymmetric, since the maximal velocity for influx was 3-fold higher than that for efflux, and trans Na+ inhibited influx more than efflux. This may be due to the asymmetrical insertion of the transporter in the brush-border membrane, which leads to differences in either the forward and backward translocation rates of the fully loaded carrier or the Na+ and succinate binding constants at the inner and outer faces of the membrane.

Abstract
The order of substrate interaction with a cotransport carrier is studied by numerically fitting theoretical models to empirical data for a Na+-D-glucose pathway. Our analysis is based on a least-squares minimization routine developed at CERN, and uses data derived from tracer flux of substrate under equilibrium exchange conditions. Random, Ordered mirror, and Ordered glide models are considered and the applicability of both Random and Glide systems to the experimental observations is demonstrated. A more detailed study of the Glide model provides an estimation of the relative values of the individual rate constants describing each kinetic step in the mechanism. We argue that parameterization of competing models can result in tests which will distinguish between them, even when these contain many unknowns in the proposed structure of the kinetic mechanism. The essence of this means of model discrimination is the ability to find a single set of parameter values that fits a variety of experimental observations. The ability to obtain numerical estimates of obtain numerical estimates of individual rate constants is also a useful tool in investigation of the kinetic fine structure of the carrier. For the data at hand we conclude that a complete parameterization of the Glide model cannot be attained, possibly due to a heterogeneity in the temperature at which the experiments have been performed. Three solutions to the Glide model are presented, each of which corresponds to a fit of the Glide model to a subset of the experimental data.

Abstract
The Na+-dependent D-glucose transport reaction in rabbit jejunal brush-border vesicles was studied. Initial rate data were obtained by fitting a polynomial equation to progress curves at different D-glucose concentrations and extracting the slope of the tangent at zero-time. Kinetic replots of the initial rate values produced biphasic Hofstee patterns indicative of two pathways for transport distinguished by their Km values for glucose. Neither was dependent on the presence of a membrane potential. Both were dependent on Na+ and both were inhibited by phlorizin. Increasing external sodium was found to elevate the apparent Vmax for both pathways. Internal sodium was inhibitory. Pulsed progress curve analysis indicated that the effect of internal sodium was best characterized as carrier sequestration by a sodium-carrier binary complex. Inhibition by internal sodium was completely reversed by the presence, internally, of D-glucose. The presence of two pathways and the kinetic constants for these pathways do not agree with the conclusions of Hopfer and Groseclose (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 4453-4462). Experiments are presented which bear on the reason for the disagreement.

Abstract
In our previous paper (Yanase, M. et al. (1983) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 733, 95-101) we reported that the Na+-dependent D-glucose uptake into brush-border membrane vesicles is decreased in rabbits with experimental Fanconi syndrome (induced by anhydro-4-epitetracycline). In the present paper we investigate the mechanism underlying this decrease. D-Glucose is taken up into the osmotically active space in anhydro-4-epitetracycline-treated brush-border membrane vesicles and exhibits the same distribution volume and the same degree of nonspecific binding and trapping as in control brush-border membrane vesicles. The passive permeability properties of control and anhydro-4-epitetracycline-treated brush-border membrane vesicles are shown to be the same as measured by the time-dependence of L-glucose efflux from brush-border membrane vesicles. D-Glucose flux was measured by the equilibrium exchange procedure at constant external and internal Na+ concentrations and zero potential. Kinetic analyses of Na+-dependent D-glucose flux indicate that Vmax in anhydro-4-epitetracycline-treated brush-border membrane vesicles (79.3 +/- 7.6 nmol/min per mg protein) is significantly smaller than in control brush-border membrane vesicles (141.3 +/- 9.9 nmol/min per mg protein), while the Km values in the two cases are not different from each other (22.3 +/- 0.9 and 27.4 +/- 1.8 mM, respectively). These results suggest that Na+-dependent D-glucose carriers per se are affected by anhydro-4-epitetracycline, and that this disorder is an important underlying mechanism in the decreased Na+-dependent D-glucose uptake into anhydro-4-epitetracycline-treated brush-border membrane vesicles.

Abstract
The cyanine dye DiS-C2(5) was tested as an indicator for changes in membrane potential of subfractionated rat jejunal brush border membrane vesicles. The fluorescence of this dye increased with inside positive and decreased with inside negative potentials. The sensitivity to inside negative potentials was greater than to inside positive potentials. The addition of L-alanine, L-phenylalanine, L-methionine, D-galactose and D-glucose in the presence of sodium provoked a transient fluorescence increase indicating an inside positive membrane potential due to electrogenic, sodium-coupled transport. Besides the sodium-dependence, the dye reflected stereo-specificity and saturability of D-glucose transport. When D-glucose loaded vesicles were incubated in D-glucose-free medium, a decrease in fluorescence was observed indicating that D-glucose efflux is also electrogenic.

Abstract
Brush border membrane vesicles ( BBMV ) purified from steer jejunum were used to study the kinetics of sodium D-glucose cotransport under voltage clamped, zero-trans conditions. When the initial rate of glucose transport ( Jgluc ) was measured over a wide range of glucose concentrations ([S] = 0.01-20 mM), curvature of the Woolf - Augustinsson -Hofstee plots was seen, compatible with a diffusional and one major, high capacity (maximal transport rate Jmax = 5.8-8.8 nmol/mg X min) saturable system. Further studies indicated that changes in cis [Na] altered the Kt, but not the Jmax, suggesting the presence of a rapid-equilibrium, ordered bireactant system with sodium adding first. Trans sodium inhibited Jgluc hyperbolically, KCl-valinomycin diffusion potentials, inner membrane face positive, lowered Jgluc , while potentials of the opposite polarity raise Jgluc . At low glucose concentrations ([S] less than 0.05 mM), a second, minor, high affinity transport system was indicated. Further evidence for this second saturable system was provided by sodium activation curves, which were hyperbolic when [S] = 0.5 mM, but were sigmoidal when [S] = 0.01 mM. Simultaneous fluxes of 22Na and [3H]glucose at 1 mM glucose and 30 mM NaCl yielded a cotransport-dependent flux ratio of 2:1 sodium/glucose, suggestive of 1:1 (Na/glucose) high capacity, low affinity system and a approximately 3:1 (Na/glucose) high affinity, low capacity system. Kinetic experiments with rabbit jejunal brush borders revealed two major Na-dependent saturable systems. Extravesicular (cis) Na changed the Kt, but not the Jmax of the major system.

Abstract
Sodium transport mechanisms were investigated in plasma membrane vesicles prepared from the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (TALH) of rabbit kidney. The uptake of 22Na into the plasma membrane vesicles was investigated by a rapid filtration technique. Sodium uptake was greatest in the presence of chloride; it was reduced when chloride was replaced by nitrate, gluconate or sulfate. The stimulation of sodium uptake by chloride was seen in the presence of a chloride gradient directed into the vesicle and when the vesicles were equilibrated with NaCl, KCl plus valinomycin so that no chemical or electrical gradients existed across the vesicle (tracer exchange experiments). Furosemide decreased sodium uptake into the vesicles in a dose-dependent manner only in the presence of chloride, with a Ki of around 5 X 10(-6) M. Amiloride, at 2 mM, had no effect on the chloride-dependent sodium uptake. Similarly, potassium removal had no effect on the chloride-dependent sodium uptake and furosemide was an effective inhibitor of sodium uptake in a potassium-free medium. The results show the presence of a furosemide-sensitive sodium-chloride cotransport system in the plasma membranes of the medullary TALH. There is no evidence for a Na+/H+ exchange mechanism or a Na+ -K+ -Cl- cotransport system. The sodium-chloride cotransport system would effect the uphill transport of chloride against its electrochemical potential gradient at the luminal membrane of the cell.

Abstract
A major obstacle to the understanding of gradient-driven transport systems has been their apparently wide kinetic diversity, which has seemed to require a variety of ad hoc mechanisms. Ordinary kinetic analysis, however, has been hampered by one mathematically powerful but physically dubious assumption: that rate limitation occurs in transmembrane transit, so that ligand-binding reactions are at equilibrium. Simple models lacking that assumption turn out to be highly flexible and are able to describe most of the observed kinetic diversity in co- and counter-transport systems. Our "minimal" model of cotransport consists of a single transport loop linking six discrete states of a carrier-type molecule. The state transitions include one transmembrane charge-transport step, and one step each for binding of substrate and cosubstrate (driver ion) at each side of the membrane. The properties of this model are developed by sequential use of realistic experimental simplifications and generalized numerical computations, focussed to create known effects of substrate, driver ion, and membrane potential upon the apparent Michaelis parameters (Jmax, Km) of isotopic substrate influx. Specific behavior of the minimal model depends upon the arrangement of magnitudes of individual reaction constants among the whole set (12) in the loop. Well defined arrangements have been found which permit either increasing membrane potential or increasing external driver-ion selectively to reduce the substrate Km, elevate Jmax, jointly raise both Km and Jmax, or lower Km while raising Jmax. Other arrangements allow rising internal driver ion to act like either a competitive or a noncompetitive inhibitor of entry, or allow internal substrate to shut down ("transinhibit") influx despite large inward driving forces. These findings obviate most postulates of special mechanisms in cotransport: e.g., stoichiometry changes, ion wells, carrier-mediated leakage, and gating - at least as explanations for existing transport kinetic data. They also provide a simple interpretation of certain kinds of homeostatic regulation, and lead to speculation that the observed diversity in cotransport kinetics reflects control-related selection of reaction rate constants, rather than fundamental differences of mechanism.

Abstract
Sodium-dependent D-glucose uptake into proteoliposomes reconstituted from dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and hog kidney brush border membrane extract is strongly affected by temperature and the physical state of the membranes. This dependence is defined by a nonlinear Arrhenius plot with a break point at 23 degrees C, a temperature not significantly different from the phase transition temperature of the pure lipid (24 degrees C). The transport process is characterized by different activation energies: 35.1 kcal/mol below and 5.5 kcal/mol above the transition temperature. The shift in the break point for the D-glucose transport activity from 15 degrees C, in the brush border membranes, to 23 degrees C in the reconstituted system leads us to conclude that the lipids surrounding the sodium/D-glucose cotransport system can exchange readily with the bulk lipid used for reconstitution. The results thus provide no evidence for the presence of an annulus of specific lipids surrounding the transport system.

Abstract
The D-glucose uptake by liposomes resulting from the association of egg lecithins with solubilized membrane proteins was measured in order to assess their sodium dependent D-glucose transport activity. Membrane proteins were extracted by Triton X-100 solubilization of pig kidney brush border membrane vesicles, which were suspended either in KCl medium or in NaCl medium. When measured by equilibrium isotope exchange procedure in sodium conditions, the D-glucose uptake by sodium detergent extract associated to liposomes occurred with a higher velocity than that obtained with liposomes reconstituted from potassium detergent extract. No differences were observed in the permeability or in the protein content of two types of liposomes. These results are discussed in terms of activation of D-glucose transport system induced by sodium ions before membrane protein solubilization.

Abstract
Brush border membranes were isolated from rat renal cortex by a divalent cation precipitation method. L-35S-cysteine uptake into the vesicles was measured by a rapid filtration method. Only minimal binding of the amino acid to the vesicles was observed. Sodium stimulates L-cysteine uptake specifically. Anion replacement experiments, experiments in the presence of potassium/valinomycin-induced diffusion potential as well as experiments with a potential-sensitive fluorescent dye document an electrogenic sodium-dependent uptake mechanism for L-cysteine. Tracer replacement experiments as well as the fluorescence experiments indicate a preferential transport of L-cysteine. Transport of L-cysteine is inhibited by L-alanine and L-phenylalanine but not by L-glutamic acid and the L-basic amino acids. Initial, linear influx kinetics provide evidence for the existence of two transport sites. The results suggest (a) sodium-dependent mechanism(s) for L-cysteine shared by other neutral amino acids.

Abstract
At delta psi approximately equal to 0, D-glucose influx into, and efflux out of, membrane vesicles from small-intestinal brush borders are affected by trans Na+ and trans D-glucose to different extents. D-glucose influx and efflux respond to delta psi (negative at the trans side) to different extents. The small-intestinal Na+, D-glucose cotransporter is thus functionally asymmetric. This is not unexpected, in view of the structural asymmetry previously found. The characteristics of the delta psi-dependence of transinhibition by D-glucose are compatible with the mobile part of the cotransporter bearing a negative charge of at least 1 (in the substrate-free form). They are not compatible with its mobile part being electrically neutral. Pertinent equations are given in the Appendix. Partial Cleland's kinetic analysis and other criteria rule out (Iso) Ping Pong mechanisms and makes likely a Preferred Ordered mechanism, with Na+out binding to the cotransporter prior to the sugarout. A likely model is proposed aimed at providing a mechanism of flux coupling and active accumulation.

Abstract
To characterize further the Na+/D-glucose cotransport system in renal brush border membranes, phlorizin - a potent inhibitor of D-glucose transport - has been chemically modified without affecting the D-glucose moiety or changing the side groups that are essential for the binding of phlorizin to the Na+/D-glucose cotransport system. One series of chemical modifications involved the preparation of 3-nitrophlorizin and the subsequent catalytic reduction of the nitro compound to 3-aminophlorizin. From 3-aminophlorizin, 3-bromoacetamido-, 3-dansyl- and 3-azidophlorizin have been synthesized. In another approach, 3'-mercuryphlorizin was obtained by reaction of phlorizin with Hg(II) acetate. The phlorizin derivatives inhibit sodium-dependent but not sodium-independent D-glucose uptake by hog renal brush border membrane vesicles in the following order of potency: 3'-mercuryphlorizin = phlorizin greater than 3-aminophlorizin greater than 3-bromoacetamidophlorizin greater than 3-azidophlorizin greater than 3-nitrophlorizin greater than 3-dansylphlorizin. 3-Bromoacetamidophlorizin - a potential affinity label - also inhibits sodium-dependent but not sodium-independent phlorizin binding to brush border membranes. In addition, sodium-dependent phosphate and sodium-dependent alanine uptake are not affected by 3-bromoacetamidophlorizin. The results described above indicate that specific modifications of the phlorizin molecule at the A-ring or B-ring are possible that yield phlorizin derivatives with a high affinity and high specificity for the renal Na+/D-glucose cotransport system. Such compounds should be useful in future studies using affinity labeling (3-bromoacetamido- and 3-azidophlorizin) or fluorescent probes (3-dansylphlorizin).

Abstract
Using brush-border membrane vesicles isolated from calf kidney cortex the effect of tyrosine-reactive reagents on sodium-dependent D-glucose transport was investigated. Treatment of the membranes for 60 min with NBD-Cl (7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole), N-acetylimidazole or tetranitromethane decreased D-glucose uptake 50, 70 and 40%, respectively. Tracer exchange experiments revealed that the inhibition of transport is due to a direct modification of the sodium-D-glucose cotransport system. The modification by NBD-Cl decreases the apparent Vmax of the transport system with respect to its interaction with sodium. In addition, the rate of inactivation of the transport system by NBD-Cl is reduced in the presence of high concentrations of sodium. The results indicate that tyrosine residues play an essential role in sodium-D-glucose cotransport and are probably involved in the binding and/or transport of sodium by the sodium-D-glucose cotransport system.

Abstract
A new phlorizin derivative (2'-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-azidophloretin, 4-azidophlorizin) has been synthesized and its affinity for the D-glucose, Na+ co-transport system in brush border vesicles from intestinal and renal membranes has been compared with that of phlorizin. The extent of the reversible interaction of the ligand with the transporter in dim light has been evaluated from three separate measurements: (1) Ki', the constant for fully-competitive inhibition of (Na+, delta psi)-dependent D-glucose uptake, (2) Kd', the dissociation constant of 4-azido[3H]phlorizin binding in the presence of an NaSCN inward gradient, and (3) Ki", the constant for fully-competitive inhibition of the specific ((Na+, delta psi)-dependent, D-glucose protectable) high-affinity [3H]phlorizin binding. In experiments with vesicles derived from rat kidney, all three constants (Ki', Kd' and Ki") were essentially equal and ranged between 3.2 and 5.2 microM, that is, the azide derivative has almost the same affinity for this transporter as phlorizin itself. On the other hand, compared to phlorizin, the 4-azidophlorizin has a lower affinity for the transporter in vesicles prepared from rabbit; its Ki' values are some 15-20-times larger than those determined with rat membranes. However, the affinity of the azide for the sugar transporter in membranes from either the intestine or kidney of the same animal species (rabbit or rat) was essentially the same. In spite of the lower affinity for the transporter in either membrane system from the rabbit, results described elsewhere (Hosang, M., Gibbs, E.M., Diedrich, D.F. and Semenza, G. (1981) FEBS Lett., 130, 244-248) indicate that 4-azidophlorizin is an effective photoaffinity label in this species also. Photolysis of the azide yields a reactive intermediate which reacts with a 72 kDa protein in rabbit intestine brush borders. Covalent labeling of this protein occurred under conditions which suggests that it is (a component of) the glucose transporter.

Abstract
Brush border membrane vesicles isolated from rabbit small intestine were used to measure the interactions between sodium and glucose transport with a rapid uptake technique. A plot of glucose uptake rate vs. increasing sodium concentration yielded a sigmoid curve. Hill analysis revealed a coefficient of 1.9 +/- 0.02 (+/- SEM), consistent with at least two sodium ions involved in glucose transport. Transport coupling was then measured directly with double-label experiments in which the uptakes of D-glucose and sodium were determined in the presence and absence of cotransported solute. At the earliest time point, the ratio of cosubstrate-dependent sodium transport to glucose transport was 3.2 +2- 0.7 (+/- SEM). We conclude that two or more sodium ions are coupled to glucose transport across the intestinal brush border membranes.

Abstract
The temperature dependence of sodium-dependent and sodium-independent D-glucose and phosphate uptake by renal brush border membrane vesicles has been studied under tracer exchange conditions. For sodium-dependent D-glucose and phosphate uptake, discontinuities in the Arrhenius plot were observed. The apparent activation energy for both processes increased at least 4-fold with decreasing temperature. The most striking change in the slope of the Arrhenius plot occurred between 12 and 15 degrees C. The sodium-independent uptake of D-glucose and phosphate showed a linear Arrhenius plot over the temperature range tested (35-5 degrees C). The behavior of the transport processes was compared to the temperature dependence of typical brush border membrane enzymes. Alkaline phosphatase as intrinsic membrane protein showed a nonlinear Arrhenius plot with a transition temperature at 12.4 degrees C. Aminopeptidase M, an extrinsic membrane protein exhibited a linear Arrhenius plot. These data indicate that the sodium-glucose and sodium-phosphate cotransport systems are intrinsic brush border membrane proteins, and that a change in membrane organization alters the activity of a variety of intrinsic membrane proteins simultaneously.

Abstract
The mechanisms of carrier-mediated cotransport across biological membranes can be divided into those with ordered and those with random sequences of substrate binding to and debinding from the carrier. When the membrane is considered a symmetry plane, the sequence of substrate binding and debinding of ordered mechanisms can exhibited either of two symmetries: mirror or glide. The carrier-mediated cotransport of solutes is kinetically analyzed for equilibrium exchange in membrane vesicles to obtain criteria for distinguishing the different transport mechanisms. Three types of kinetic measurement are necessary to determine the type of cotransport mechanism: (1) isotope exchange of either substrate as a function of its concentration (Km determination); (2) isotope exchange of either substrate as a function of cosubstrate concentration (activation curves); and (3) ratios of mass exchange rates of both substrates as a function of various substrate concentration ratios. These criteria are applied to and discussed in terms of Na+-dependent D-glucose cotransport and putative Na+-Cl- cotransport.

Abstract
Mixed membrane vesicles prepared from cultured chick embryo fibroblasts possess a stereospecific D-glucose transport system, the properties of which are identical to those of the system in intact cells. Uptake of D-glucose proceeds without chemical alteration. The rate of stereospecific uptake of D-glucose into the mixed vesicles is 70% greater than that of the homogenate and uptake is directly proportional to membrane protein concentration. Stereospecific D-glucose uptake appears linear for 0.3 min, reaches a maximum at 2--5 min, and declines to zero by 5 h as L-glucose enters the vesicles. Uptake is osmotically sensitive and inhibited by cytochalasin B (Ki = 0.13 microM) and the structural analogues of D-glucose : D-mannose, 2-deoxy-D-glucose, 3-O-methyl-D-glucose, D-galactose and maltose, but not by sucrose of L-glucose. Uphill counterflow can be demonstrated and the apparent activation energy displays a transition from 47.7 kcal/mol below 11 degrees C to 18.1 kcal/mol above 11 degrees C. Stereospecific uptake rates of mixed vesicles prepared from Rous sarcoma virus-transformed cells are increased 30% over control values, and are increased 66% in vesicles derived from cells incubated for 24 h in glucose-free medium. Plasma membrane vesicles prepared from these cells by a dextran cushion centrifugation procedure display a 9-fold increase in the specific activity of stereospecific D-glucose uptake relative to the homogenate. Extraction of these membranes with dimethylmaleic anhydride (5 mg/mg protein) results in substantial or complete removal of major polypeptides of molecular weight 40 000, 55 000, 75 000, 78 000 and 200 000 with no loss in total uptake activity. Following extraction, major polypeptides of molecular weight 28 000, 33 000 and 68 000 remain in the membrane residue.

Abstract
Epithelia are multicompartment and multicomponent systems performing transcellular and paracellular transport in a very complex manner. One way to get a deeper understanding of the function of such a complex system is to dissect it into the single components and then, after having defined the components under well-controlled conditions, to try to describe the behavior of the whole system on the basis of the properties of the single components. This article deals with the analysis of isolated plasma membranes derived from the luminal and contraluminal face of epithelial cells, predominantly renal proximal tubular and small intestinal cells. It is aimed to give an overview of methods used to isolate and separate plasma membranes, to study their transport properties as membrane vesicles, and also to address the question of how information gained with the isolated membranes corresponds to observations made in the intact cell using other, notably electrophysiological, measurements. The review also critically evaluates the limitations of the approach and thereby tries to set the work on isolated membranes in the proper perspective within the field of transport physiology.
