Abstract
Soluble lens proteins from five species of amphibia have been studied by zone electrophoresis and other immunochemical methods. Their patterns, as revealed by electrophoresis, do not differ markedly though the numbers of bands and subunits vary. The γ-crystallin appears to be the predominant lens protein in all the species. Immunodiffusion tests showed a reaction of complete identity of lens antigens of different species with respect to Xenopus laevis lens antiserum; while X. laevis, Triturus crislatus, Ambystoma mexicanum lens antigens revealed partial identity when tested against Rana esculenta and Bufo bufo lens antisera.
