"The self-exchange
of HCO3- in red cells through Band III (capnophorin)
is extremely rapid, and the cells have an effective
permeability under physiological conditions of 4X10^-4 cm/sec (ref 1), with about 2.5 million proteins per cell (primary source), but this
is about 1/10,000 of [researchers'] minimal estimate of CO2 permeability." |
