AlphaA-crystallin R49Cneo mutation influences the architecture of lens fiber cell membranes and causes posterior and nuclear cataracts in mice.

Usha P Andley
BMC ophthalmology | 2009

AlphaA-crystallin (CRYAA/HSPB4), a major component of all vertebrate eye lenses, is a small heat shock protein responsible for maintaining lens transparency. The R49C mutation in the alphaA-crystallin protein is linked with non-syndromic, hereditary human cataracts in a four-generation Caucasian family.
