Abstract

Zn²⁺ can induce a conformational change of Band 3 with concomitant inhibition of its anion transport activity of human erythrocyte membrane vesicles only from the cytoplasmic side. The Zn²⁺ inhibition exhibits a dose-dependent manner with an apparent half maximal concentration of 50 μM ZnCl₂ and can be reversed by 0.5 mM EDTA, but not by 1 mM dithiothreitol. The Zn²⁺ effect is specific and no similar inhibitory action could be observed by other divalent cations (Cu²⁺, Mn²⁺, Mg²⁺ or Sr²⁺).
