1. We have shown that the Dia antigen of the Diego blood group system is associated with the presence of red cell band 3 Memphis, but not all band 3 Memphis samples carry the Dia antigen. 2. The band 3 Memphis associated with the Dia antigen was covalently labelled by 4,4'-di-isothiocyanato-1,2-diphenylethane-2,2'-disulphonic acid (H2DIDS) more readily than was normal band 3 or band 3 Memphis not associated with the Dia antigen. This altered reactivity with H2DIDS has previously been noted for a band 3 Memphis sub-type designated variant 2. 3. This is the first example of a band 3 polymorphism associated with an antigenic change in the extracellular region of the band 3 polypeptide and with altered H2DIDS binding.

D001457	Anion Exchange Protein 1, Erythrocyte	A major integral transmembrane protein of the ERYTHROCYTE MEMBRANE. It is the anion exchanger responsible for electroneutral transporting in CHLORIDE IONS in exchange of BICARBONATE IONS allowing CO2 uptake and transport from tissues to lungs by the red blood cells. Genetic mutations that result in a loss of the protein function have been associated with type 4 HEREDITARY SPHEROCYTOSIS.
