The Role of Hemoglobin Denaturation and Band 3 Clustering in Red Blood Cell Aging
As hemoglobin begins to denature, it forms hemichromes that cross-link the major erythrocyte membrane--spanning protein, band 3, into clusters. These clusters provide the recognition site for antibodies directed against senescent cells. These antibodies bind to the aged red cell and trigger its remo...
