    Red blood cell (RBC) deformability is altered in inherited RBC disorders but the mechanism behind this is poorly understood. Here, we explored the molecular, biophysical, morphological, and functional consequences of α-spectrin mutations in a patient with hereditary elliptocytosis (pEl) almost exclusively expressing the Pro260 variant of SPTA1 and her mother (pElm), heterozygous for this mutation. At the molecular level, the pEI RBC proteome was globally preserved but spectrin density at cell edges was increased. Decreased phosphatidylserine vs. increased lysophosphatidylserine species, and enhanced lipid peroxidation, methemoglobin, and plasma acid sphingomyelinase (aSMase) activity were observed. At the biophysical level, although membrane transversal asymmetry was preserved, curvature at RBC edges and rigidity were increased. Lipid domains were altered for membrane:cytoskeleton anchorage, cholesterol content and response to Ca
