Sequence and Structure-Based Analyses of Human Ankyrin Repeats
Molecules, 2022 Ankyrin is one of the most abundant protein repeat families found across all forms of life. It is found in a variety of multi-domain and single domain proteins in humans with diverse number of repeating units.

Mechanical Anisotropy of Ankyrin Repeats [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2012 Red blood cells are frequently deformed and their cytoskeletal proteins such as spectrin and ankyrin-R are repeatedly subjected to mechanical forces. While the mechanics of spectrin was thoroughly investigated in vitro and in vivo, little is known about the mechanical behavior of ankyrin-R.

Polydnaviral ankyrin proteins aid parasitic wasp survival by coordinate and selective inhibition of hematopoietic and immune NF-kappa B signaling in insect hosts. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2013 Polydnaviruses are mutualists of their parasitoid wasps and express genes in immune cells of their Lepidopteran hosts. Polydnaviral genomes carry multiple copies of viral ankyrins or vankyrins.

Mechanisms underlying the role of ankyrin-B in cardiac and neurological health and disease
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 The ANK2 gene encodes for ankyrin-B (ANKB), one of 3 members of the ankyrin family of proteins, whose name is derived from the Greek word for anchor. ANKB was originally identified in the brain (B denotes “brain”) but has become most widely known for its

Structural basis of diverse membrane target recognitions by ankyrins
eLife, 2014 Ankyrin adaptors together with their spectrin partners coordinate diverse ion channels and cell adhesion molecules within plasma membrane domains and thereby promote physiological activities including fast signaling in the heart and nervous system ...

Ophthalmic Research, 2009 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.

Axonal Spectrins: Nanoscale Organization, Functional Domains and Spectrinopathies
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019 Spectrin cytoskeletons are found in all metazoan cells, and their physical interactions between actin and ankyrins establish a meshwork that provides cellular structural integrity.
