Summary: | This study examines the action of hypoxia on integrity, fluidity and protein composition of red blood cell (RBC) membrane. Twenty-min exposure to oxygen-free environment decreases rat RBC integrity documented by 3-fold elevation of hemoglobin release without any action on the membrane fluidity estimated by electron magnetic resonance spectroscopy of spin-labeled stearic acid analogues. The proteomics technology in combination with relative label free quantification analysis revealed a dozen of membrane-bound proteins, including elevated content of hemoglobin, reproducibly affected by hypoxia. Mapping the identified proteins in the KEGG pathway database we found that the proteins of multi subunit Cullin-Rbx E3 ubiquitin ligase complex are presented in normoxic RBC ghosts but not in the hypoxic samples. Our results suggest that Cullin-Rbx E3 complex, associated with RBC membrane in normoxia, provides detection and deletion of membrane proteins damaged by reactive oxygen species. In hypoxic conditions, deoxy-Hb binds to band 3 protein, resulting in dissociation of Cullin-Rbx E3 complex from RBC membrane and impaired clearance of damaged cytoskeleton proteins. These rearrangements of membrane proteins might be involved in attenuated membrane integrity revealed in hypoxic RBC. |
