Figure 2. Ankyrin-band 3-protein 4.2 complex.
(A) view from within the plane of the membrane, approximate location of the inner face of the cell membrane is indicated with a black line; (B) view from the cytoplasm. Proteins are displayed as Cα cartoon, ANK repeat region of ankyrin in green, cytoplasmic domain of band 3 (disordered regions omitted) in red and protein 4.2 in pink. Protein 4.2 residues 187-211 (associated with ankyrin and band 3 binding) are coloured blue, and displayed as sticks; residue 2 (myristolyation site) is coloured black and displayed as sticks.
