OverviewOverview

We have carried out a solution-state NMR study of synthetic peptides, patterned on the first membrane span of normal human band 3, and the same, region of the mutant band 3 present in Southeast Asian ovalocytosis (SAO), which has a nine amino acid deletion. In 1:1 (v/v) chloroform/methanol, the 42 residue normal peptide (R389-K430) consisted of three helical, regions. The slow solvent exchange of backbone amide protons revealed the, helix from P403 to A416 was more stable than the "cytoplasmic" N-terminal, helix from P391 to A400. These helices were separated by a sharp bend at, P403, which is probably located at the boundary between the cytoplasmic, domain and the first transmembrane span. The SAO deletion (A400-A408), removed the bend at P403, to leave a stable helix from P391 to A416, containing the residuum of the normal first transmembrane helix and with a, hydrophobic turn replaced by a polar turn in the SAO peptide. Insertion of, fragments of normal band 3 and band 3 SAO into microsomal membranes was, investigated using a cell free translation system. A fragment composed of, the cytoplasmic domain and the putative first membrane domain of normal, band 3 (B3(1)) inserted stably into the membrane. However, the, corresponding fragment of band 3 SAO [SAO(1)] did not integrate stably, into membranes. Our results suggest that in SAO band 3, the region of the, first membrane span of normal band 3 does not integrate properly into the, membrane because it lacks a sufficiently long hydrophobic segment, and the, deletion also disrupts a conserved structural subdomain at the membrane, surface.
