Actin-binding protein (ABP) is a well-characterized polypeptide capable of crosslinking filamentous actin. To date, this polypeptide has been shown to exist in a number of tissues and cultured cell lines. This report shows that by using a panel of three monoclonal antibodies for immunoblotting and immunofluorescence analysis, that ABP is present in bovine erythrocytes. Moreover, the data obtained suggest that this protein is a component of the erythrocyte membrane skeleton. Additionally, bovine erythrocyte ABP is shown to possess both an apparent molecular weight and an isoelectric point identical to that of bovine smooth muscle filamin, implying that these two polypeptides are identical. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
