Article Synopsis
- The cytoplasmic domain of the anion exchange protein (cdb3) is essential for organizing protein-protein interactions that help maintain the stability of the red blood cell membrane.
- X-ray crystallography revealed a compact dimer structure for a specific region of cdb3, while earlier studies hinted at an asymmetric structure and pH-sensitive transitions.
- Investigations using spin labeling and EPR techniques confirmed that the core structure remains stable at neutral pH, with disordered regions at the ends, providing critical insights into how cdb3 interacts within the erythrocyte membrane.
