Spectrin is a long, flexible protein composed of an alpha-chain and a beta-chain, that form tetramers and provide a scaffold for structural reinforcement of human red blood cells.
The cytoskeleton is the scaffolding of a cell. It is composed of microtubules, actin filaments, spectrin tetramers, and intermediate filaments. Without this framework, the cell would collapse.
The properties of red blood cells are small, biconcave cell containing Spectrin protein to change shape and bend; thin enough to bind and transport gases CO2 and O2; impermeable so hemoglobin can't get out and albumin can't get in.
Proteins are used for making structures in cells including actin filaments, spectrin tetramers, and intermediate filaments. Proteins are packaged into vesicles (protein-carrying sacks) at the Golgi aparatus and are then shipped off. Things called motor proteins attach to the vesicles and transport them across the network of microtubules (highway-like structures) towards the centrosome (the center of the microtubule network). The vesicles will at some point turn inside out, spilling all the proteins they contained. These proteins will float away and be used for construction the structures. In simpler text, proteins are used to make the structures inside of a cell such as actin filaments, spectrin tetramers, and intermediate filaments. For info on these structures, just Google them.
They are found in the center of the cell, inside the nucleus
The genetic material of a virus is found in the capsid.

An ankyrin is any of a family of adaptor proteins which mediate the attachment of integral membrane proteins to the spectrin-actin based membrane skeleton.
It is a phase in the production of erythrocytes where hemoglobin and spectrin are beginning to be produced by the ribosomes of the hemocytoblast stem cells in red bone marrow.
