Abstract
1. An antiserum specific for bovine GFAP was employed in a comparative study of this protein in several species of bony fish and in an anura n species. 2. The immunological properties of this protein are conserv ed in a remarkable way in all the species examined. 3. Analysis of tro ut and bovine GFAP by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis indicated th at the charge properties of this protein have remained quite constant from fish to mammals.
