✦ Synopsis

The proteins of the human erythrocyte membrane have been separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the resulting gel cut into 2-mm sections, and the amino acid content and composition of each slice measured using a sensitive method of amino acid analysis. The distribution of proteins among bands coincides closely with that estimated using staining intensity. Composition data for the major bands agree well with those reported for the purified proteins in all cases except that of band 4.5. Using quantitative amino acid analysis and resistive particle counting the total protein content of purified membranes was found to be 3.75 X 10(-13) g/cell, which is substantially less than previous estimates based on indirect methods. These data are used to calculate the number of copies of each major protein in a single erythrocyte.
