title: The nature and abundance of human red cell surface glycoproteins.
abstract: Available evidence suggests that there are at least 30 different proteins at the red cell surface. These proteins vary in abundance from a few hundred copies/cell to more than a million copies/cell. Recently, a new Glycophorin gene (Glycophorin E) has been identified and sequenced. In this paper evidence is presented that a monoclonal anti-M detects the product of the Glycophorin E gene in normal red cells.
