title: Ankyrin of the ocular lens.
abstract: Ankyrin was identified in the human, bovine and chicken lens as a protein of molecular weight 216 kilodaltons. It is specifically extracted from association with the fiber cell plasma membranes by high-ionic-strength salt solution and is predominantly found in young fiber cells. A protein which is unrelated to plakoglobin, protein 4.1 or ankyrin is also specifically extracted by high-salt solution.
