Abstract
The 220 kDa β-subunit of erythroid cell spectrin is a potent inhibitor of protein synthesis in lysates from rabbit reticulocytes. On the basis of weight of protein added to a lysate reaction mixture, it has about half the inhibitory activity of highly purified heme-regulated eIF-2α kinase. Inhibition appears to be at the level of peptide initiation but does not involve a kinase that phosphorylates eIF-2 on its α-subunit.
