title: A cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of spectrin dimer.
abstract: In contrast to the properties of spectrin obtained from [32P]phosphate-labeled red cells, purified spectrin dimer could be phosphorylated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase from bovine heart. Both spectrin bands were phosphorylated. Spectrin band 2 contained in addition to autophosphorylated peptides several phosphopeptides that were distinct from autophosphorylated ones. The cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of spectrin band I was modulated by reducing agent and the concentration of spectrin. At high concentrations spectrin band 2 was predominantly labeled. The cAMP-dependent phosphoform of spectrin band 2 had a pI slightly higher than that of autophosphorylated spectrin band 2, but lower than that of ankyrin.
