| Abstract: | Sequences from the human erythrocyte anion-transport protein homologous with residues 417-449 and 794-813 of the murine erythrocyte anion-transport protein have been determined. The former sequence includes the putative transmembrane helix closest to the N-terminus of the protein. The latter sequence traverses almost all of the lipid bilayer and is located towards the C-terminus of the protein. Sites have been identified by alignment with the murine sequence in the integral membrane domain that are accessible to proteolytic enzymes. Sequences from the integral membrane domain of the erythrocyte anion-transport protein are highly conserved. |
