title: The effect of arsenate and vanadate ions on the critical cell volume of bovine erythrocytes.
abstract: Arsenate, used as an inhibitor of glycolysis, decreases the critical cell volume of erythrocytes, whereas orthovanadate, used as an accelerator of dephosphorylation of phosphatidyl-inositol-4,5-biphosphate, exerts an opposite effect. The ATP-dependent changes of the critical cell volume do not depend on the phosphorylation state of phosphatidylinositol. An interaction of the membrane skeleton with the lipid-protein matrix has been proposed as a regulation mechanism of the critical cell volume of erythrocytes.
