Failure of a cell-free system from rabbit reticulocytes to remove iron from transferrin.
1. Cell-free solutions prepared from rabbit reticulocytes were not able to release iron from rabbit transferrin. 2. The results, which differ from those obtained with Rana catesbeiana immature erythrocytes, indicate that cellular integrity is a requirement for this process in the rabbit reticulocyte system.
