title: Studies on the interaction of matrix-bound inhibitor with Band 3, the anion transport protein of human erythrocyte membranes.
abstract: The effect of temperature and chemical modification on the interaction of the human erythrocyte Band 3 protein (the anion transport protein) with 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene 2,2'-disulfonate (SITS; Ki = 10 microM)-Affi-Gel 102 resin was studied. Band 3 binds to the affinity resin in two states; weakly bound, which is eluted by 1 mM 4-benzamido-4'-aminostilbene 2,2'-disulfonate (BADS; Ki = 2 microM), and strongly bound, which is eluted only under denaturing conditions by 1% lithium dodecyl sulfate (LDS). At 4 degrees C, most of band 3 was present initially in the weakly bound form and very little in the strongly bound form. With longer incubations at 4 degrees C, the weakly bound form was slowly converted to the strongly bound form. At 37 degrees C, most of Band 3 was rapidly converted to the strongly bound form, with some Band 3 still remaining in the weakly bound form. Band 3 dimers, labelled with 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene 2,2'-disulfonate (DIDS) in one monomer, did bind to immobilized SITS but did not become tightly bound upon incubation at 37 degrees C. Since the covalent attachment of DIDS to one monomer prevented the adjacent monomer from becoming tightly bound to immobilized SITS ligand, this observation suggests that the inhibitor-binding sites of the two adjacent monomers must be interacting with each other. When the inhibitor site of Band 3 was selectively modified by citrate in the presence of 1-ethyl-3-(3-azonia-4,4-dimethylpentyl)carbodiimide (EAC), Band 3 bound to the resin was more easily eluted by BADS, suggesting reduced affinity for immobilized SITS. However, citrate-modified Band 3 did become tightly bound upon incubation at 37 degrees C.
