The relationship of rat brain spectrin isoforms to microtubules of newborn and adult animals was studied. Spectrins were minor components in microtubule preparations. The microtubule-associated spectrin is a major calmodulin-binding protein. Radiolabelled brain spectrin(240/235) revealed specific microtubule binding activity in vitro, possibly via a tubulin.
