Three binary protein-protein interactions, glycophorin C (GPC)-4.1R, GPC-p55, and p55-4.1R, constitute the GPC-4.1R-p55 ternary complex in the erythrocyte membrane. Little is known regarding the molecular basis for the interaction of 4.1R with either GPC or p55 and regarding the role of 4.1R in regulating the various protein-protein interactions that constitute the GPC-4.1R-p55 ternary complex. In the present study, we present evidence that sequences in the 30-kDa domain encoded by exon 8 and exon 10 of 4,1R constitute the binding interfaces for GPC and p55, respectively. We further show that 4.1R increases the affinity of p55 binding to GPC by an order of magnitude, implying that 4,1R modulates the interaction between p55 and GPC. Finally, we document that binding of calmodulin to 4.1R decreases the affinity of 4.1R interactions with both p55 and GPC in a Ca2+-dependent manner, implying that the GPC-4.1R-p55 ternary protein complex can undergo dynamic regulation in the erythrocyte membrane. Taken together, these findings have enabled us to identify an important role for 4.1R in regulating the GPC-4.1R-p55 ternary complex in the erythrocyte membrane.
