We have previously shown the presence of two different forms of glutathione disulfide (GSSG)-stimulated Mg2+-ATPases in human erythrocytes. We have now investigated a low-Km form of the enzyme from human erythrocytes. Purification of the enzyme was performed to apparent homogeneity involving procedures of affinity chromatography and gel filtration. The enzyme was composed of two non-identical subunits of Mr = 82K and 62K. The enzyme reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles showed both GSSG-stimulated Mg2+-ATPase activity (285 nmol Pi released/mg protein/min) and active GSSG transport activity (320 nmol GSSG/mg protein/min). The amino acid composition of the enzyme was similar to that of the enzyme purified from cytoplasmic membranes of human hepatocytes. These enzymes were immunologically cross reactive. These results indicate that this enzyme functions in the active transport of GSSG as it possibly does in hepatocytes.
