    PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
    STRUCTURE
    motifs/domains
  • lacks the N-terminal 65 AAs of the erythroid form (AE1, band 3), which are essential for binding of cytoskeletal and cytosolic proteins
  • 13 transmembrane (13TM) segments
  • an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain that interacts with the cytoskeleton, and intracellular N terminal including binding sites for hemoglobin, EPB41 and other proteins
  • an ankyrin-binding site located near the deoxyHb (deoxygenated haemoglobin)-binding site
  • a C cytoplasmic terminal forming the exchange channel, transmembrane domain that transports anions independently, and implicated in the anion translocation process
  • conjugated GlycoP

    text
  • expressed in the cilia and may support Cl(-) accumulation
  • integral membrane protein linked to the spectrin/actin cytoskeleton
  • basic FUNCTION
  • anion exchange across the basolateral surface
  • mediating electroneutral chloride/bicarbonate exchange
  • plays an important role in transcellular bicarbonate absorption
  • major anion transport protein of erythrocytes, that forms the core of a multiprotein complex in the erythrocyte membrane
  • ANK1/SLC4A1 complex plays critical roles in bridging spectrin/actin cytoskeleton to the cell surface lipid membrane and serving as a docking site for multiple membrane/cytoskeleton proteins
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • ANK1/SLC4A1 complex connects the spectrin-based skeleton to the plasma membrane and helps maintain the vertical and horizontal integrities of the mature erythrocyte
  • SLC4A1 and GYPA form a complex in the ER of human K562 cells, but that both proteins can also traffic to the cell surface independently of each other
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • anchor protein and target for PTPN11 in erythrocytes
  • forming the scaffold for a protein assembly that could transduce signals from the cell exterior and modulate the transport and mechanical properties of the erythrocyte
  • GYPA is a sialoglycoprotein that associates with SLC4A1 in erythrocytes forming the Wrb (Wright b) blood group antigen
  • interacts with nephrin and ILK to maintain the structure and function of the glomerular basement membrane
  • interacting with AP1M1 (AP1M1 is involved in the SLC4A1 trafficking of kidney alpha-intercalated cells)
  • interacts with KIF3B in the kidney tissue a dileucine motif at the C-terminal SLC4A1 contributes to its interaction with KIF3B)
  • preferentially binds deoxygenated haemoglobin at its N-terminus, and has been postulated to participate in the mechanism by which oxygenation controls cellular processes
  • DPP4, AGTR2, SLC4A1, KREMEN1, ASGR1, ANP, TMEM30A, CLEC4G, and LDLRAD3, along with ACE2 facilitate SARS-CoV-2. virus entry and transmission
