Protein 4.1 is an important structural component of the erythrocyte membrane. In contrast to
our detailed understanding of the role of protein 4.1 in regulating membrane mechanical
properties through modulation of spectrin-actin interaction, very little is known regarding the
functional implications of protein 4.1 interaction with band 3. In the present study, we
explored the potential role of protein 4.1-band 3 interaction in modulating membrane
mechanical properties. Based on recent studies which identified the sequence motif IRRRY …
