Structural and functional studies of erythrocyte membrane-skeleton by single-cell and single-molecule techniques
As the indispensable oxygen-transporting cells, erythrocytes exhibit extreme deformability and amazing stability as they are subject to huge reversible shear stress and extrusion force during massive circulation in the body. The unique architecture of spectrin-actin-based membrane-skeleton is consid...
