The mechanism of bicarbonate translocation across the luminal membrane of the eel (Anguilla anguilla) kidney tubular cells was studied by monitoring the uptake of H14CO3- into isolated brush-border membrane vesicles. Results indicate that the presence of a transmembrane outwardly directed Cl- gradient was able to transiently accumulate H14CO3- into the vesicular space, whereas neither an inwardly directed sodium gradient nor a transmembrane electrical potential gradient (inside positive) was able to stimulate the H14CO3- influx. This anion-dependent H14CO3- uptake was inhibited by 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, suggesting that an anion exchanger was present in the brush-border membrane vesicles.
