The / -minispectrin is a shortened soluble version

interactions in vitro. In this study we constructed

chain. The original and modified version of the
minispectrin was produced in order to perform

( / )/ ( / ÷N), and a tetramer, ( / )2/( / ÷N)2.
The effect of calcium on the binding of spectrin to
actin has for long been a theme of dispute.
Therefore the influence of calcium on the
interaction between actin and the minispectrins were
investigated using two different methods, an
ultracentrifuge actin pull down assay and Biacore®X.
The results from both methods showed that calcium
had no direct effect on the binding of the
minispectrins to the actin.
