The human erythrocyte structural protein spectrin and its subunits I, I1 were isolated in the presence of Na-dodecyl-sulfate by gel filtration and preparative gel electrophoresis. After removal of the detergent, spectrin alpha-helical content is comparable to spectrin isolated without detergent. Sub

Using phospholipase digestion and the fluorescent probe merocyanine 540 the maintenance of phospholipid asymmetry in the plasma membrane of human erythrocyte ghosts was investigated. Digestion with phospholipase A2 indicated that ghosts prepared in the presence of Mg+ + as the only divalent cation r
## Abstract Using a rapid method of preparation, spectrin has been isolated from human erythrocytes and its ATPase activity investigated. The ATPase activity with calcium has two distinct components, βone with optimal activity when calcium and ATP are of equal concentration (lowβCaβATPase) and anot
We have developed a laboratory method combining a random mutagenesis method and a yeast two-hybrid system to study effects of mutation on human erythrocyte spectrin tetramerization. A PCR-based procedure was used to generate random mutations in DNA fragments of the first 55 residues of alpha-spectri
