  • Title: D-glucose: preferential binding to brush borders disrupted with tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane.
    Author: Faust RG, Wu SL, Faggard ML.
    Journal: Science; 1967 Mar 10; 155(3767):1261-3. PubMed ID: 6018648.
    Abstract:
    The actively transported sugar D-glucose binds to brush borders disrupted with tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane in preference to D-mannose and L-glucose, which are not actively transported. This preferential binding of D-glucose is not dependent on either added Na(+) or adenosine triphosphatase activity stimulated by Na(+) with K(+) and Mg(2+), but it is temperature-dependent and is completely inhibited by 0.1 millimolar phlorizin and 1 millimolar mercuric chloride.
