A quenched-flow apparatus and a newly developed automated syringe system have been used to measure initial rates of D-[14C]glucose transport into human red blood cells at temperatures ranging from 0.degree. to 53.degree. C. The Haldane relationship is found to be obeyed satisfactorily at both 0 and 20.degree. C, but Arrhenius plots of maximum D-[14C]glucose transport rates are non-linear under conditions of both equilibrium exchange and zero trans influx. Fitting of the data by non-linear regression to the conventional model for glucose transport gives values at 0.degree. C of 0.726 .+-. 0.0498 s-1 and 12.1 .+-. 0.98 s-1 for the rate constants governing outward and inward movements of the unloaded carrier molecule and 90.3 .+-. 3.47 s-1 and 1113 .+-. 494 s-1 for outward and inward movements of the carrier-glucose complex. Activation energies for these four rate constants are respectively 173 .+-. 3.10, 127 .+-. 4.78, 88.0 .+-. 6.17 and 31.7 .+-. 5.11 kJ .cntdot. mol-1. These parameters indicate that at low temperatures the marked asymmetry of the transport mechanism raises mainly from the high proportion of inward-facing carriers and carrier-glucose complexes, and that there is a relatively small difference between the affinities of the carrier for glucose in the inward and outward-facing conformations. At high (physiological) temperature the carrier is fairly evenly distributed between outward- and inward-facing conformations and the affinity for glucose is about 2.5-times greater outside than inside.
