Abstract
Prolonged incubation (5 hr) of canine erythrocyte at pH 7.2, or pH 7.7 and PCO2 3.5 or 35 were used to determine the effect of CO2 on glycolysis. The following was observed: 1) an inverse relationship exists between lactate production and CO2. 2) the inhibitory effect of H+ ion on glucose uptake is decreased by prolonged incubation (5 hr compared to 1 hr). 3) carbon dioxide becomes inhibitory for glucose uptake following prolonged incubation. 4) increasing external bicarbonate decreases erythrocyte 2-3 DPG. 5) iodoacetate inhibition of glycolysis reverses the inverse relationship of lactate (pyruvate) to CO2 suggesting that the CO2 sensitive enzyme lies proximal to 1-3 diphosphoglycerate.
