Spin-labeled analogs of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidlyserine and phosphatidylethanolamine were used to study phospholipid transverse diffusion and asymmetry in the human erythrocyte membrane. Ascorbate reduction was used to assess the transbilayer distribution of the labels. All 3 spin-labeled phospholipids initially incorporated into the outer leaflet of the membrane. On fresh erythrocytes at 5.degree. C, the phosphatidylcholine label remained mainly in the outer leaflet. The phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine labels underwent rapid transverse diffusion that led to their asymmetric distribution in favor of the inner leaflet. The latter effect was reversibly inhibited after ATP depletion of the erythrocytes and could be reproduced on resealed erythrocyte ghosts only if hydrolyzable Mg-ATP was included in the internal medium. An ATP-driven transport of amino phospholipids toward the inner leaflet could be the major cause of the phospholipid asymmetry in the erythrocyte membrane. The same mechanism were explain the ATP requirement of the maintenance of the erythrocyte membrane discoid shape.
