To characterize the age-related protein bound fluorescent compounds of human cataractous lenses, the insoluble yellow protein component was proteolytically digested and then fractionated using ion-exchange, gel filtration and high pressure liquid chromatography. A complex and heterogeneous mixture of fluorescent components was associated with these lens proteins. 3,3''-Bityrosine and anthranilic acid were structurally identified as constituents of the proteolytic hydrolysate. The latter compound appeared to be a degradation product of an unstable precursor.
