Abstract excerpt
Anion exchanger 1 (AE1 or band 3) is responsible for Cl(-)-HCO3(-) exchange on erythrocyte membrane. Previously, we showed that band 3 is fixed in an inward-facing conformation by specific modification of His 834 with DEPC, resulting in a strong inhibition of its anion transport activity. To clarify the physiological role of His 834, we evaluated the sulfate transport activities of various band 3 mutants:...
