When the iodination of intact human erythrocytes was catalyzed by the enzyme lactoperoxidase, only a single stroma protein was iodinated, and this protein component thus appears to be the only protein component exposed on the exterior of the human ERYthrocyte surface.

The membrane contains protein complexes which can be dissociated by sodium dodecyl sulfate after exposure to salt, and the dissociation is less extensive when intact membranes are exposed to salt.

A very reactive, highly radioactive reagent designed to acylate amino groups has been synthesized: this compound, the sulphone of 35 S-labelled formylmethionyl methyl phosphate, cannot pass through the red blood cell membrane.

Ghosts prepared in 15 mos m -Tris (pH 7.6) are extensively degraded by pronase: essentially all the protein shifts to low molecular weight.

The number of individual components in each of the fractions has been studied by acrylamide gel electrophoresis and NH2-terminal amino acid analysis and the amino acid and carbohydrate compositions of the eight fractions obtained are presented.

It is demonstrated by Hall (1967) that this inactivation of E.coli polymerase appears much less pronounced when calf thymus DNA is used as the template and activity even increases again at later times.
