P values were determined with Student t tests. Membrane rigidity: P values between wild-type and Ank-11674/+ were greater than .05; and less than .05 between wild-type and Ank-11674/1674. P values for the RBC volume between wild-type and Ank-11674/+ as well as between wild-type and Ank-11674/1674 mice were less than .05. P values less than .05 were considered significant.
