Abstract
Saturation transfer electron paramagnetic resonance (ST-EPR) spectroscopy has been employed to characterize the very slow microsecond to millisecond rotational dynamics of a wide range of nitroxide spin-labeled proteins and other macromolecules in the past three decades. The vast majority of this previous work has been carried out on spectrometers that operate at X-band ( approximately 9 GHz) microwave frequency with a few investigations reported at Q-band ( approximately 34 GHz). EPR spectrometers that operate in the 94-250-GHz range and that are capable of making conventional linear EPR measurements on small aqueous samples have now been developed. This work addresses potential advantages of utilizing these same high frequencies for ST-EPR studies that seek to quantitatively analyze the very slow rotational dynamics of spin-labeled macromolecules. For example, the uniaxial rotational diffusion (URD) model has been shown to be particularly applicable to the study of the rotational dynamics of integral membrane proteins. Computational algorithms have been employed to define the sensitivity of ST-EPR signals at 94, 140, and 250 GHz to the correlation time for URD, to the amplitude of constrained URD, and to the orientation of the spin label relative to the URD axis. The calculations presented in this work demonstrate that these higher microwave frequencies provide substantial increases in sensitivity to the correlation time for URD, to small constraints in URD, and to the geometry of the spin label relative to the URD axis as compared with measurements made at X-band. Moreover, the calculations at these higher frequencies indicate sensitivity to rotational motions in the 1-100-ms time window, particularly at 250 GHz, thereby extending the slow motion limit for ST-EPR by two orders of magnitude relative to X- and Q-bands.

Abstract
The cytoplasmic domain of band 3, the main intrinsic protein of the erythrocyte membrane, possesses binding sites for a variety of other proteins of the membrane and the cytoplasm, including the glycolytic enzymes glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and aldolase. We have studied the stoichiometry of the complexes of human band 3 protein and GAPDH and the competition by aldolase for the binding sites. In addition, we have tried to verify the existence of mixed band 3/GAPDH/aldolase complexes, which could represent the nucleus of a putative glycolytic multienzyme complex on the erythrocyte membrane. The technique applied was analytical ultracentrifugation, in particular sedimentation equilibrium analysis, on mixtures of detergent-solubilized band 3 and dye-labelled GAPDH, in part of the experiments supplemented by aldolase. The results obtained were analogous to those reported for the binding of hemoglobin, aldolase and band 4.1 to band 3: (1) the predominant or even sole band 3 oligomer forming the binding site is the tetramer. (2) The band 3 tetramer can bind up to four tetramers of GAPDH. (3) The band 3/GAPDH complexes are unstable. (4) Artificially stabilized band 3 dimers also represent GAPDH binding sites. In addition it was found that aldolase competes with GAPDH for binding to the band 3 tetramer, and that ternary complexes of band 3 tetramers, GAPDH and aldolase do exist.

Abstract
The rotational flexibility of the cytoplasmic domain of band 3, in the region that is proximal to the inner membrane surface, has been investigated using a combination of time-resolved optical anisotropy (TOA) and saturation-transfer electron paramagnetic resonance (ST-EPR) spectroscopies. TOA studies of rotational diffusion of the transmembrane domain of band 3 show a dramatic decrease in residual anisotropy following cleavage of the link with the cytoplasmic domain by trypsin (E. A. Nigg and R. J. Cherry, 1980, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 77:4702-4706). This result is compatible with two independent hypotheses: 1) trypsin cleavage leads to dissociation of large clusters of band 3 that are immobile on the millisecond time scale, or 2) trypsin cleavage leads to release of a constraint to uniaxial rotational diffusion of the transmembrane domain. ST-EPR studies at X- and Q-band microwave frequencies detect rotational diffusion of the transmembrane domain of band 3 about the membrane normal axis of reasonably large amplitude that does not change upon cleavage with trypsin. These ST-EPR results are not consistent with dissociation of clusters of band 3 as a result of cleavage with trypsin. Global analyses of the ST-EPR data using a newly developed algorithm indicate that any constraint to rotational diffusion of the transmembrane domain of band 3 via interactions of the cytoplasmic domain with the membrane skeleton must be sufficiently weak to allow rotational excursions in excess of 32 degrees full-width for a square-well potential. In support of this result, analyses of the TOA data in terms of restricted amplitude uniaxial rotational diffusion models suggest that the membrane-spanning domain of that population of band 3 that is linked to the membrane skeleton is constrained to diffuse in a square-well of approximately 73 degrees full-width. This degree of flexibility may be necessary for providing the unique mechanical properties of the erythrocyte membrane.

Abstract
The membrane-spanning protein, band 3, anchors the spectrin-based membrane skeleton to the lipid bilayer via the bridging protein, ankyrin. To understand how band 3 subunit stoichiometry influences this membrane-skeletal junction, we have induced changes in the band 3 association equilibrium and assayed the kinetics and equilibrium properties of ankyrin binding. We observe that band 3 oligomers convert slowly to dimers and ultimately monomers following removal of ankyrin. Addition of excess ankyrin back to these membranes enriched in dissociated band 3 then shifts band 3 almost entirely to tetramers, confirming that the tetrameric form of band 3 constitutes the preferred oligomeric state of ankyrin binding. 4, 4'-Diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS) labeling of band 3, which is shown to shift most of the band 3 population to dimers, eliminates the majority of ankyrin-binding sites on the membrane and greatly reduces retention of band 3 in detergent-extracted membrane skeletons. Furthermore, DIDS- modified membranes lack all low affinity ankyrin-binding sites and roughly half of all high affinity sites. Since labeled membranes lack the rapid kinetic phase of ankyrin binding and exhibit only half of the normal amplitude of the slow kinetic phase, it can be concluded that the rapid phase of ankyrin association involves low affinity sites and the slow phase involves high affinity sites. A model accounting for these data and most previous data on ankyrin-band 3 interactions is provided.

Abstract
The pH dependence of hemoglobin binding to inside-out red cell membrane vesicles was studied using 90 degrees light scattering (Salhany, J.M. et al., Biochemistry 19 (1980) 1447-1454). Hyperbolic binding curves were observed for high-affinity hemoglobin binding to the cytoplasmic domain of band 3 (CDB3) within the intact transporter. Analysis of these saturation curves yielded the apparent Kd and the maximum light scattering signal change (DeltaLSmax ). The apparent Kd for hemoglobin binding did not change substantially between pH 5.5 and 7.0, while at pH 8, there is no binding. In contrast, DeltaLSmax decreased by about 20-fold between pH 5.5 and 7.0, with an apparent pK of 6.5. These results suggest that hemoglobin binds to CDB3 with high affinity at both neutral and acid pH, a suggestion that was confirmed using a centrifugation method. Thus, the pK for the light scattering signal change is significantly lower than the pK for the actual binding process. We show that the change in DeltaLSmax is not related to a change in band 3 binding capacity, which remains constant as a function of pH. We also show that hemoglobin binding to non-band 3 sites contributes less than 10% to DeltaLSmax under our specific experimental conditions. On the basis of these and previous fluorescence quenching results in the literature, we propose a new model for hemoglobin binding to band 3, where raising the pH from 6 and 7 causes the CDB3-hemoglobin complex to undergo a conformational change leading to the movement of the bound hemoglobin away from the surface of the bilayer. The possible implication of this new mechanistic interpretation is discussed briefly.

Abstract
Time-resolved phosphorescence anisotropy has been used to study the rotational diffusion of eosin-labeled human erythrocyte band 3 in the presence of an enzyme bound at its cytoplasmic pole. With increasing amounts of G3PD (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) added to ghosts, the infinite time anisotropy (r infinity) increases, and at saturating concentrations, very little decay of the anisotropy r(t) occurs at all. These phenomena are reversed by elution of the enzyme with 150 mM NaCl. Prior proteolytic removal of the N-terminal 41-kDa cytoplasmic fragment of band 3 also disenables the G3PD effect. When ghosts are stripped of their residually bound G3PD, a small reduction in the fraction of immobile band 3 is observed. Finally, titration of band 3 sites with aldolase shows effects on the r(t) qualitatively similar to those observed with G3PD. On the basis of our interpretation of the heterogenous anisotropy decay of eosin-labeled band 3 [Matayoshi, E. D., & Jovin, T. M. (1991) Biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)], we conclude that the binding of G3PD and aldolase results in the immobilization of band 3 oligomers.
