Topology models of anion exchanger 1 that incorporate the anti-parallel V-shaped motifs found in the EM structureThis paper is one of a selection of papers published in a Special Issue entitled CSBMCB 53rd Annual Meeting — Membrane Proteins in Health and Disease, and has undergone the Journal’s usual peer review process.

Abstract: We recently published the three-dimensional structure of the membrane domain of human erythrocyte anion exchanger 1 (AE1) at 7.5 Å resolution, solved by electron crystallography. The structure exhibited distinctive anti-parallel V-shaped motifs, which protrude from the membrane bilayer on both sides. Similar motifs exist in the previously reported structure of a bacterial chloride channel (ClC)-type protein. Here, we propose two topology models of AE1 that reflect the anti-parallel V-shaped structural motifs. … Show more

“…These observations further support our conclusion that the epitope(s) for mono-specific anti-5C IgY antibody is exposed on the surface of normal RBCs. Our findings provide direct evidence for the exofacial folding of 5C and 6A regions of band 3 in the normal human RBC membrane, thus lending support to multiple topology models for human RBC band 3 delineating the TM10-12 segments of the membrane domain [4246]. …”

“…Three independent topology models predict a significant part of the 5C region is exposed on the RBC surface [4244], and two of these models suggest a considerable part of the 6A region is also exposed [43, 44]. Recent determination of the structure of Band 3/AE1 membrane domain dimer at 7.5-Å resolution by electron microscopy revealed a partial exposure of the 5ABC region, particularly sequence corresponding to the 5C region, and somewhat ambiguous topology of the 6A region [45, 46]. Despite these structural insights, conclusive biochemical validation of the accessibility of specific regions of band 3 in intact erythrocytes is lacking.…”

“…In support of the above model, the three-dimensional structure of the AE1 membrane domain shows V-shaped densities near the center of the dimer at 7.5 Å resolution (Hirai, Hamasaki, Yamaguchi, & Ikeda, 2011; Yamaguchi et al, 2010). Interestingly, similar V-shaped densities exist in the previously reported structure of a prokaryotic chloride channel (ClC) protein.…”

“…We have identified cross-links between several AE1 cytoplasmic domains, and structural models for the protein are currently being developed. Additionally, the cross-linking data have allowed us to resolve one key controversy concerning this protein, which is whether the transmembrane antiporter is comprised of 12 or 14 transmembrane spans [89], as the cross-linking data is only consistent with the 14-span model.…”
