Role of N-myristylation in targeting of band 4.2 (pallidin) in nonerythroid cells.

Abstract excerpt

Band 4.2 (pallidin) is a major erythrocyte membrane protein which has been detected in a number of nonerythroid cell types. Increasing evidence suggests that band 4.2 is involved in maintaining membrane stability in the erythrocyte. For example, band 4.2 binds to the integral membrane protein band 3 and to cytoskeletal proteins in the erythrocyte membrane, and band 4.2 deficiency results in varying degrees of...
