Description générale
Spectrin is the major component of the protein network, which covers the cytoplasmic surface of vertebrate erythrocyte membranes. It is a high molecular weight heterodimer composed of two subunits (molecular weights of approximately 230 kDa and 250 kDa). Spectrins are extended flexible molecules approximately 200-260 nm in length and 3-6 nm across with actin-binding domains at each end. Spectrins are composed of α and β subunits, which are both related to a-actinin. The α and β subunits associate laterally to form antiparallel heterodimers and the heterodimers are assembled head-head to form heterotetramers. The erythrocyte membrane skeleton is organized as a polygonal network formed by five to seven extended spectrin molecules linked to short actin filaments approximately 40 nm in length. The spectrin-actin network of erythrocytes is coupled to the membrane bilayer primarily through the association of spectrin with ankyrin, which in turn is bound to the cytoplasmic domain of the anion exchanger. A major function of the spectrin skeleton in erythrocytes is to provide mechanical support for the membrane bilayer and allow survival of the cells in circulation.
The C-terminus of spectrin contains a calmodulin-like EF domain. This domain is critical for binding of spectrin to actin for proper cytoskeletal formation. Deletion of this domain results in weak, irregularly-shaped red blood cells.

Telomere integrity is critical for telomere function and genomic stability. We previously demonstrated that non-erythroid α-spectrin (αIISp) is present in mammalian cell nuclei where it is important in repair of DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs) and chromosome stability. We now demonstrate

The erythrocyte membrane, a metabolically regulated active structure that comprises lipid molecules, junctional complexes, and the spectrin network, enables the cell to undergo large passive deformations when passing through the microvascular system. Here we use atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging

We have carried out chemical shift correlation experiments with symmetry-based mixing sequences at high MAS frequencies and examined different strategies to simultaneously acquire 3D correlation spectra that are commonly required in the structural studies of proteins. The potential of numerically

Axons must be supported by a strong and flexible cytoskeleton. New 'super-resolution' imaging of the submembranous axonal cytoskeleton reveals that it is organized in a periodic, ladder-like structure with alternating rings of actin linked together by intervening complexes of spectrin.

Accumulated data from animal models and human cancer patients strongly support the concept that the immune system can identify and control nascent tumor cells in a process called cancer immunosurveillance. In addition, the immune system can also promote tumor progression
