High impact information on EPB42
- 2. Although distinct electrophoretic mobilities suggested a structural difference in the two isoforms, this polymorphism appeared to have little effect at least on P4.2 association with band 3, since no significant difference was observed in the amount of P4.2 relative to total membrane proteins despite the phenotype difference for P4.2 [1].
- Two P4.2 cDNA clones were isolated from bone-marrow cDNAs of the animal with the P4.2(76/75) phenotype [1].
Biological context of EPB42
- Cattle were divided into three groups according to the red cell-protein 4.2 (P4.2) phenotypes P4.2(76), P4.2(75) and P4 [1].
