Figure 6. Comparison of the binding of [125I]-spectrin α18-21EF, [125I]-βABD1-4, [125I]-minispectrin, and [125I]-minispectrin-Δ13 to F-actin in the presence of protein 4.1R. The spectrin fragments and protein 4.1 were all 0.38μM. F-actin was 2.38μM in G-actin monomers. Error bars represent the range of 2 to 5 independent experiments for each protein. Neither the isolated α-spectrin EF domain nor the β-spectrin actin-binding domain binds to actin at these concentrations, whereas the assembled minispectrin binds robustly.
