Popis: Transport of glycyl- l -leucine into isolated brush border membrane vesicles was studied. On the basis of the following observations it was postulated that glycyl- l -leucine was transported intact by a specific dipeptide mechanism. 1. (1) The differing time course and Na + stimulation of glycine, l -leucine and glycyl- l -leucine. 2. (2) The failure of glycine and l -leucine to inhibit glycyl- l -leucine transport. 3. (3) Initial presence of dipeptide within the vesicle. 4. (4) Inhibition of glycyl- l -leucine uptake by other dipeptides. 5. (5) The occurrence of accelerated amino acid uptake in the presence of the dipeptide.
