Abstract
The major transmembrane protein of the red blood cell, known as band 3, AE1, and SLC4A1, has two main functions: 1) catalysis of Cl-/HCO3- exchange, one of the steps in CO2 excretion; 2) anchoring the membrane skeleton. This review summarizes the 150 year history of research on red cell anion transport and band 3 as an experimental system for studying membrane protein structure and ion transport mechanisms. Important early findings were that red cell Cl- transport is a tightly coupled 1:1 exchange and band 3 is labeled by stilbenesulfonate derivatives that inhibit anion transport. Biochemical studies showed that the protein is dimeric or tetrameric (paired dimers) and that there is one stilbenedisulfonate binding site per subunit of the dimer. Transport kinetics and inhibitor characteristics supported the idea that the transporter acts by an alternating access mechanism with intrinsic asymmetry. The sequence of band 3 cDNA provided a framework for detailed study of protein topology and amino acid residues important for transport. The identification of genetic variants produced insights into the roles of band 3 in red cell abnormalities and distal renal tubular acidosis. The publication of the membrane domain crystal structure made it possible to propose concrete molecular models of transport. Future research directions include improving our understanding of the transport mechanism at the molecular level and of the integrative relationships among band 3, hemoglobin, carbonic anhydrase, and gradients (both transmembrane and subcellular) of HCO3-, Cl-, O2, CO2, pH, and NO metabolites during pulmonary and systemic capillary gas exchange.

Abstract
For accurate species-level identification of microorganisms, researchers today increasingly use a
combination of standard microbiological cultivation and visual observation methods with molecular biological and genetic techniques that help distinguish between species and strains of microorganisms at the level
of DNA or RNA molecules. The aim of this work was to identify microorganisms from the ICG SB RAS Collection
using an integrated approach that involves a combination of various phenotypic and genotypic characteristics. Key molecular-genetic and phenotypic characteristics were determined for 93 microbial strains from the
ICG SB RAS Collection. The strains were characterized by means of morphological, physiological, moleculargenetic, and mass-spectrometric parameters. Specific features of the growth of the strains on different media
were determined, and cell morphology was evaluated. The strains were tested for the ability to utilize various
substrates. The strains studied were found to significantly differ in their biochemical characteristics. Physiological characteristics of the strains from the collection were identified too, e.g., the relationship with oxygen,
type of nutrition, suitable temperature and pH ranges, and NaCl tolerance. In this work, the microorganisms
analyzed were combined into separate groups based on the similarities of their phenotypic characteristics.
This categorization, after further refinement and expansion of the spectrum of taxa and their metabolic maps,
may serve as the basis for the creation of an “artificial” classification that can be used as a key for simplified and
quicker identification and recognition of microorganisms within both the ICG SB RAS Collection and other
collections

Abstract
The human erythrocyte anion exchange protein, Band 3, was reacted with N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) in cells to a stoichiometry of 5.3 mol NEM per mol Band 3, indicating that all NEM-reactive cysteines in Band 3 were labeled. Quantitatively NEM-blocked Band 3 was still able to bind to and be eluted by reducing agents from a mercurial affinity resin, [p-(chloromercuribenzamido)ethylene]amino-Sepharose. Reaction of NEM-blocked Band 3 with p-chloromercuribenzoate (pCMB) did not prevent binding to the resin due to exchange of pCMB for the immobilized mercurial. pCMB has been reported to inhibit water and urea permeation across the red cell membrane, and this has been attributed to reaction with a NEM-reactive sulfhydryl in Band 3. The interaction of Band 3 with the immobilized ligand directly demonstrates the reaction of NEM-blocked Band 3 with a mercurial and indicates that the NEM-unreactive, pCMB-reactive sulfhydryl residue is accessible to within approximately equal to 12 A (the distance from the solid support to the Hg) of the surface of the solubilized Band 3 protein.

Abstract
Based on the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor model [(1987) Eur. J. Biochem. 168, 431-449], a partial model is constructed for the exobilayer portion of the GABAA receptor, an approach justified by the superfamily relationship of the two receptors [(1987) Nature 328, 221-227]. The model predicts successfully the excess positive charge on interior strands which constitute the ligand-responsive portion of the receptor. Binding to GABA expands the exobilayer portion of the receptor, opening a pathway to a chloride channel. Separate binding sites for antianxiolytics (benzodiazepines) and hypnotics (barbiturates) are suggested, with prolongation of chloride entry projected as a consequence of stabilization of the open form. The anion-exchange protein (AEP) of membranes (band 3 of red blood cell membranes) is similar in some respects to the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABAA) receptor. Both proteins are inhibited and labeled by diisocyanatostilbenedisulfonate (DIDS), both transport Cl- and HCO-3, and both are membrane proteins. Starting with the lysines known to be labeled in band 3 protein, searches of the amino acid sequences of the GABAA receptor alpha- and beta-subunits reveal at least 4 reasonably homologous sequences. The relationship between AEP and GABAA receptor leads to the idea that the chloride/bicarbonate channel may be the ancestor of all ligand-gated channels, with ligand gating by gamma-aminobutyric acid and acetylcholine arising later in evolution.

Abstract
The exposure of the carboxyl-terminal of the Band 3 protein of human erythrocyte membranes in intact cells and membrane preparations to proteolytic digestion was determined. Carboxypeptidase Y digestion of purified Band 3 in the presence of non-ionic detergent released amino acids from the carboxyl-terminal of Band 3. The release of amino acids was very pH dependent, digestion being most extensive at pH 3, with limited digestion at pH 6 or above. The 55,000 dalton carboxyl-terminal fragment of Band 3, generated by mild trypsin digestion of ghost membranes, had the same carboxyl-terminal sequence as intact Band 3, based on carboxypeptidase Y digestion. Treatment of intact cells with trypsin or carboxypeptidase Y did not release any amino acids from the carboxyl-terminal of Band 3. In contrast, carboxypeptidase Y readily digested the carboxyl-terminal of Band 3 in ghosts that were stripped of extrinsic membrane proteins by alkali or high salt. This was shown by a decrease in the molecular weight of a carboxyl-terminal fragment of Band 3 after carboxypeptidase Y digestion of stripped ghost membranes. No such decrease was observed after carboxypeptidase Y treatment of intact cells. In addition, Band 3 purified from carboxypeptidase Y-treated stripped ghost membranes had a different carboxyl-terminal sequence from intact Band 3. Cleavage of the carboxyl-terminal of Band 3 was also observed when non-stripped ghosts or inside-out vesicles were treated with carboxypeptidase Y. However, the digestion was less extensive. These results suggest that the carboxyl-terminal of Band 3 may be protected from digestion by its association with extrinsic membrane proteins. We conclude, therefore, that the carboxyl-terminal of Band 3 is located on the cytoplasmic side of the red cell membrane. Since the amino-terminal of Band 3 is also located on the cytoplasmic side of the erythrocyte membrane, the Band 3 polypeptide crosses the membrane an even number of times. A model for the folding of Band 3 in the erythrocyte membrane is presented.

Abstract
Band 3, the major transmembrane protein of erythrocytes, mediates the exchange of anions across the membrane and anchors the erythroid membrane skeleton. Proteins immunologically related to Band 3 have been detected in a variety of nonerythroid cells. We have isolated a human cDNA clone that encodes a protein related to but distinct from the erythroid form of Band 3, based on the comparison of the amino acid sequence for the two proteins. The presence of the gene for the Band 3-like protein in a panel of mouse-human somatic cell hybrids containing subsets of human chromosomes correlated with the presence of human chromosome 7. In situ hybridization analysis using the c-DNA for this nonerythroid Band 3 gene further localized the gene to region 7q35----7q36 of human metaphase chromosomes.

Abstract
Agglutination and competition studies suggest that human erythrocyte Band 3 can interact with both mannose/glucose- and galactose-specific lectins. Purified Band 3 reconstituted into lipid vesicles binds concanavalin A, but the nonspecific binding component, measured in the presence of alpha-methylmannoside, is very high. This glycoprotein also carries binding sites for the galactose-specific lectin Ricinus communis agglutinin. Binding was inhibited poorly by lactose, but much more effectively by desialylated fetuin glycopeptides, suggesting that the lectin recognizes a complex oligosaccharide sequence on Band 3. The glycoprotein bears two separate classes of binding sites for R. communis agglutinin. High-affinity binding sites exist which show strong positive cooperativity and correspond in number to the outward-facing Band 3 molecules. A low-affinity binding mode is abolished by 40% ethyleneglycol, suggesting the involvement of hydrophobic lectin-glycoprotein interactions. Studies on binding of R. communis agglutinin to human erythrocytes indicate positively cooperative binding to 7 X 10(5) very-high-affinity sites per cell, and lectin binding is completely inhibitable by lactose. Based on its binding characteristics in vesicles, it seems likely that Band 3 forms the major receptor for this lectin in human erythrocytes. Properties such as positive cooperativity thus appear to be a common feature of the interaction of Band 3 with a variety of lectins of different specificity, both in erythrocytes and lipid bilayers.

Abstract
The N-terminal 72 residues of an integral membrane fragment, P5, of the human erythrocyte anion-transport protein, which is known to be directly involved in the anion-exchange process, was shown to have the following amino acid sequence: Met-Val-Pro-Lys-Pro-Gln-Gly-Pro-Leu-Pro-Asn-Thr-Ala-Leu-Leu-Ser-Leu-Val-Leu-Met -Ala-Gly-Thr-Phe-Phe-Phe-Ala-Met-Met-Leu-Arg-Lys-Phe-Lys-Asn-Ser-Ser-Tyr-Phe-Pro-Gly-Lys-Leu-Arg-Arg-Val-Ile-Gly-Asp-Phe-Gly-Val-Pro-Ile-Ser-Ile-Leu-Ile-Met-Val-Leu-Val-Asp-Phe-Phe-Ile-Gln-Asp-Thr-Tyr-Thr-Gln- The structure of this fragment was analysed, with account being taken of the constraints that apply to the folding of integral membrane proteins and the topographical locations of various sites in the sequence. It was concluded that this sequence forms two transmembrane alpha-helices. These are probably part of a cluster of amphipathic transmembrane alpha-helices, which could comprise that part of the protein responsible for transport activity. The presently available evidence relating to the anion-exchange process was considered with the structural features noted in this study and a possible molecular mechanism is proposed. In this model the rearrangement of a network of intramembranous charged pairs mediates the translocation of an anion between anion-binding regions at each surface of the membrane, which are composed of clusters of positively charged amino acids. This model imposes a sequential exchange mechanism on the system. Supplementary material, including Tables and Figures describing the compositions of peptides determined by amino acid analysis and sequence studies, quantitative and qualitative data that provide a residue-by-residue justification for the sequence assignment and a description of modifications to and use of the solid-phase sequencer has been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50123 (12 pages) with the British Library Lending Division, Boston Spa, Wetherby, West Yorkshire LS23 7BQ, U.K., from whom copies can be obtained as indicated in Biochem.

Abstract
Right-side-out vesicles derived from red blood cells treated with chymotrypsin retain specific anion transport function (defined as transport sensitive to the specific inhibitor, 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbenedisulfonic acid (DIDS), even though the transport protein, band 3, is cleaved into two segments of 60 and 35 kdaltons. In contrast, vesicles derived from alkali-stripped ghosts treated with relatively high concentrations of chymotrypsin retain almost no specific anion function. The loss of function appears to be related to additional cleavages of band 3 protein that occur in treated ghosts, the 60-kdalton segment being reduced first to a 17- and then to a 15-kdalton segment and the 35-kdalton segment being reduced to a 9-kdalton segment plus a carbohydrate containing fragment. The chymotryptic cleavages of band 3 protein of ghosts are preferentially inhibited by high ionic strength, the production of the 9-kdalton segment being somewhat slower than that of the 15-kdalton segment. Vesicles derived from ghosts treated with chymotrypsin at different ionic strengths show a graded reduction in specific anion transport activity, but it was not possible to determine, definitively, which of the additional cleavages was inhibitory. In the light of these data and other information, the functional role of the segments of band 3 is discussed.

Abstract
Proteins which traverse membranes tend to have a dimeric structure in which the dimer is arranged asymmetrically across the membrane with the axis of symmetry perpendicular to the membrane plane. This general structure is well suited to the function of transporting nutrients across the cell membrane.

Abstract
After treatment of red cell ghosts with chymotrypsin, the predominant intrinsic peptides remaining in the membrane fraction are 15,000 and 9,000 daltons mol wt. After partial extraction with Triton X-100, the residual membrane vesicles have almost no other stained peptides and such vesicles are reported to carry out anion transport activities sensitive to specific inhibitors. In vesicles derived from cells treated with DIDS(4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbene disulfonic acid), an irreversible inhibitor of anion transport that is highly localized in an abundant intrinsic protein known as band 3, the probe is largely recovered in the 15,000 dalton peptide. The part of band 3 from which it is derived is a previously reported 17,000 transmembrane segment (Steck, T.L., Ramos, R., Strapazon, E., 1976, Biochemistry 15:1154). The 9,000-dalton peptide is present in the vesicles in a one-to-one mole ratio with the 15,000-dalton peptide, suggesting that both are derived from the same protein. This conclusion is supported by the finding that the 35,000-dalton C-terminal end of band 3, derived by chymotrypsin treatment of cells, is further proteolysed if the cells are converted to ghosts and its disappearance coincides with the appearance of the 9,000-dalton fragment. Evidence is presented that the 9,000-dalton fragment crosses the bilayer and that it is closely associated with the 15,000-dalton peptide.

Abstract
We have compared densitometric tracings of whole cell, cytoplasmic and membrane polypeptide electrophoretic patterns in an attempt to distinguish atypical partitioning from intrinsic membrane polypeptide changes occurring as a result of reticulocyte enrichment, metabolic depletion, N-ethylmaleimide treatment and hereditary xerocytosis. We report that membrane alterations seen in a reticulocyte-enriched population of normal cells are present in the whole cells prior to membrane isolation. Some of the membrane alterations in metabolically depleted cells and all of those in N-ethylmaleimide-treated cells are traced to modifications in tary xerocytosis. We report that membrane alterations seen in a reticulocyte-enriched population of normal cells are present in the whole cells prior to membrane isolation. Some of the membrane alterations in metabolically depleted cells and all of those in N-ethylmaleimide-treated cells are traced to modifications in the partitioning of polypeptides between membranes and supernatant (cytoplasm) at hemolysis. The power of this approach in resolving the sources of apparent red cell membrane protein alterations is demonstrated in studies with hereditary xerocytes. Suggested altered partitioning of these cells described earlier (Sauberman, N., Fortier, N.L., Fairbanks, G., O'Connor, R.J. and Snyder, L.M. (1979) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 556, 292-313) is further documented and found to be unrelated to the younger cell population or slight metabolic depletion that occurs during the washing of xerocytes prior to hemolysis.

Abstract
A short procedure for the isolation of band-3 protein, the protein responsible for anion exchange in erythrocytes, in a reasonable degree of purity was developed. Using this protein preparation and a novel procedure for membrane-protein reconstitution, vesicles displaying the basic features of the anion-exchange system of the erythrocyte were obtained. The reconstitution procedure is based on slow direct removal of Triton X-100 from aqueous lipid/detergent solutions. According to the composition of the reconstitution medium, either small single-walled or large multi-walled vesicles are obtained. The procedure conserves protein properties well, as is revealed by the similarity of the rates of SO4(2-) exchange in erythrocytes and reconstituted vesicles when corrected for the relevant volumes. A number of functional features of the exchange system were studied and compared with those of the native membrane.

Abstract
To investigate the intramembranous domains of the major band-3 polypeptide, human erythrocyte membranes were labelled with 1-azido-4-[125I]iodobenzene. The anion-exchange protein has been isolated by a new procedure that decreases possible contamination by other integral membrane proteins of similar molecular weight. After chemical modification, the protein was subjected to proteolytic cleavage by several proteinases to yield a distinct pattern of peptides, a few of which contained radioactivity.

Abstract
The hydrophobic probe phenylisothiocyanate is utilized for chemical modification of human erythrocyte band 3 protein. The binding of phenylisothiocyanate to this protein is characterized in whole erythrocytes, erythrocyte ghost membranes and in isolated band 3 protein. The label, reactive with nucleophiles in their deprotonated form is found in all three preparations to be covalently bound to band 3 protein. Under saturation conditions, 4--5 mol phenylisothiocyanate are covalently bound per mol protein (molecular weight 95 000). The described modification effects inhibition of phosphate entry into erythrocytes. 50% inhibition of phosphate transport is obtained following a preincubation of erythrocytes with 0.45 mM phenylisothiocyanate. Both phenylisothiocyanate binding and transport inhibition are saturating processes. The relationship of the two parameters is non-linear.

Abstract
We have studied the fragmentation by pepsin in 1 M-acetic acid of the erythrocyte anion-transport protein in erythrocyte membranes. The location of the fragments obtained was determined by radioiodinating the protein with the use of lactoperoxidase, and identifying the labelled peptides obtained in peptide "maps" of thermolysin digests of the fragments. Three of the fragments were found to be related overlapping products, and shared a common C-terminus. The major site of pepsin cleavage leading to the C-termini of these fragments was shown to be close to the major site of extracellular cleavage of the protein by proteinases active at a neutral pH. Another two fragments were isolated and shown to be derived from the C-terminal portion of the protein. No well-defined large radioactive fragments of the protein were solubilized from the membrane by pepsin in 1 M-acetic acid, the bulk of the radioactivity attributable to the anion transport protein being recovered in very small fragments that could not be resolved by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Our results suggest that the polypeptide chain of the anion-transport protein emerges at the extracellular face of the membrane 8000-13000 daltons on the N-terminal side of the major site of extracellular cleavage of the protein by proteinases that are active at a neutral pH.

Abstract
The topology of the human erythrocyte membrane anion-transport protein (band 3) has been investigated by isolation and peptide 'mapping' of the major and minor fragments derived from proteolytic cleavage of the lactoperoxidase 125I-labelled protein in erythrocytes and erythrocyte membranes. The content, in each fragment, of lactoperoxidase 125I-labelled sites (which have a known location in the extracellular or cytoplasmic domain of the protein), together with the location of the sites of proteolytic cleavage yielding the fragments, has allowed us to determine the alignment of the fragments on the linear amino acid sequence and to infer the topology of the polypeptide in the membrane. The results suggest that a region in the C-terminal portion of the polypeptide forms part of the cytoplasmic domain of the protein in addition to a large N-terminal segment. The membrane-bound regions of the protein are located in the C-terminal two-thirds of the molecule. In this region the polypeptide chain traverses the membrane at least four times and an additional loop of polypeptide is either embedded in the membrane or also penetrates through it to the other surface. The location of the lectin receptors on the protein and the site of binding of an anion-transport inhibitor have also been studied.

Abstract
High resolution polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic techniques have been applied to the preparative isolation and analysis of plasma membrane proteins and glycoproteins from human platelets and red blood cells. The techniques presented allow relatively simple, direct, rapid and quantitative purification of a broad molecular weight range of membrane proteins, by means of continuous elution preparative gel electrophoresis of protein solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate. Spectrophotometric and fluorophotometric (fluorescamine) profiling, and high resolution gel electrophoretic analysis (SDS-acrylamide gradient slab gels, and gel electrofocusing) of eluted protein species indicate that purified membrane proteins of a broad molecular weight range may be obtained in a one step procedure, and in quantities and concentrations sufficient for further analytical or experimental procedures.

Abstract
Extracellular chymotrypsin cleaves the 95 000 dalton protein that migrates in band 3 of SDS-polyacrylamide gel electropherograms of the erythrocyte membrane into fragments of 60 000 and 35 000 daltons, but not further. Minor components of band 3 that remain at the original 95 000 dalton location may be eluted from the membrane by 0.1 N NaOH, indicating that, in contrast to the major component and the chymotryptic fragments, they are not integral membrane constituents. Incubation at neutral pH of chymotrypsinized erythrocytes with the bifunctional anion transport inhibitor 4,4'-diisothiocyano dihydrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid results in covalent binding of that inhibitor primarily to the 60 000 dalton fragment and some cross-linking of the 60 000 dalton fragment with the 35 000 dalton fragment. Increasing the pH to 9.5 leads to a cross-linking of virtually all of the pairs of chymotryptic fragments and thus to a reconstitution of band 3 with its typical diffuse appearance in the 95 000 dalton region of the SDS-polyacrylamide gels. This indicates that (1) each integral 95 000 dalton protein molecule is capable of binding at least one 4,4'-diisothiocyano dihydrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid molecule; (2) the 35 000 dalton fragment, though it is only weakly stained with Coomassie blue, is present in an amount that is equimolar with that of the 60 000 dalton fragment. Since the number of 4,4'-diisothiocyano dihydrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid binding sites on the protein in band 3/cell is known to be close to the number of band 3 molecules/cell, it is suggested that the cross-linking takes place at a region of the band 3 molecule that is involved in the control of anion transport, Like chymotrypsin, papain digests the band 3 protein from the outer membrane surface. Unlike chymotrypsin, however, papain digestion results in an inhibition of anion exchange. Papain produces a major fragment of 60 000 daltons that differs from the major chymotryptic fragment by at most six amino acid residues. The only detectable difference between the noninhibitory action of chymotrypsin and the inhibitory action of papain on the band 3 protein is that papain is capable of partially digesting the 35000 dalton fragment. No reconstitution of band 3 by cross-linking of the fragments with 4,4'-diisothiocyano dihydrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid can be achieved. Since the 35 000 dalton fragment reacts with one of the two reactive groups of 4,4'-diisothiocyano dihydrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid and is also susceptible to digestion by the inhibitory papain, we suggest that a portion of this peptide participates, together with a portion of the 60 000 dalton fragment, in the control anion transport.

Abstract
1. Extracts of the human erythrocyte membrane have been prepared by five different procedures involving Triton X-100 solubilization and gel chromatography. 2. The extracts have been analysed by gel electrophoresis and incorporated asymmetrically into phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol-n-decane planar bilayers. 3. Removal of excess Triton X-100 from membrane extracts or prolonged storage facilities the proteolysis of membrane extracts with the partial or complete breakdown of band 3 polypeptides (notation of Fairbanks, G., Steck, T.L. and Wallach, D.F.H. (1971) Biochemistry 10, 2606--2616) and the appearance of an enhanced zone 4.5 and low molecular weight material. 4. Incorporation of zone 4.5 polypeptides into bilayer lipid membranes increases their permeability to D-glucose at 27 and 5 degrees C. 5. It is suggested that the components of the monosaccharide system are present in band 3 polypeptides but that they can undergo proteolysis with some retention of transport activity.

Abstract
1. The two major polypeptides (P1 and P2) of erythrocyte-membrane spectrin were isolated by preparative polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. 2. The two polypeptides were shown to possess similar amino acid compositions, both with the characteristically high glutamate and leucine contents of the parent spectrin. 3. The tryptic-peptide 'maps' of the two polypeptides were prepared by a combination of t.l.c. and electrophoresis. 4. Radioactive peptides were prepared by [14C]carboxymethylation and chloramine-T-catalysed [125I]iodination. 5. 'Maps' of both sets of peptides demonstrate a marked similarity between the two polypeptides. 6. These new data confirm earlier evidence for the similarity of the two chains. 7. The number of peptides in the 'maps' of carboxymethylated peptides suggest that polypeptides P1 and P2 are not aggregates.

Abstract
The coat protein of fd bacteriophage has a short polypeptide chain of only 50 amino acid residues, containing a highly hydrophobic segment of 19 amino acids that is entirely devoid of ionic or other strongly polar amino acids. In the viral particle the protein exists as a closely packed array of alpha helices. It can be transformed to a monomeric randomly coiled polypeptide in very concentrated (greater than or equal to 7.3 M) guanidinium chloride. In anionic detergents or phospholipids the protein is dimeric, with a mixed conformation ("50% alpha"), the hydrophobic segment having a beta structure, whereas the two ends are predominantly alpha helical. In guanidinium chloride at concentrations of 6 M or less, and under other conditions in the absence of an anionic detergent or phospholipid, the protein forms an intractable polymer, with a beta-type conformation. If the protein is succinylated an oligomeric form of this structure (speculatively thought to be a soluble variety of a "beta barrel") can be obtained as a metastable state. The 50% alpha conformation, the beta oligomer, and the random coil can be interconverted reversibly, but formation of the beta polymer appears to be irreversible.

Abstract
Single bilayer lipid vesicles were formed by removal of Triton X-100 with Bio Beads SM-2 from a mixture of egg lecithin and a Triton X-100 extract of human erythrocyte ghosts. Upon freeze-fracturing, these vesicles showed intramembrane particles, similar to those seen in the erythrocyte membrane. Similar particles were also observed when a partially purified band 3 preparation was used instead of the crude Triton X-100 extract. In the reconstituted vesicles an equal distribution of the intramembrane particles between the two fracture faces was observed. This is in contrast to the unequal distribution of the particles in the erythrocyte membrane, which did not seem to be altered by removal of the extrinsic proteins. From digestion studies with trypsin and chymotrypsin of vesicles, reconstituted from the crude X-100 extract, it is concluded that band 3 protein in the vesicle bilayer has a similar orientation as in the native membrane.
