title: Potassium transport in monkey erythrocytes.
abstract: K transport in Rhesus and Cynomolgus monkey erythrocytes has been characterised and compared to that in human erythrocytes. Transport due to the NaK pump, residual (diffusional) leak, volume-, pressure- and N-ethyl-maleimide-stimulated KCl system and internal Ca2+-stimulated K channel were similar to that in man but in the monkey it differed, in lacking the loop-diuretic-sensitive NaKCl cotransport system.
