Synergistic effects of metal ion and the pre-senile cataract-causing G98R αA-crystallin: self-aggregation propensities and chaperone activity
PURPOSE: αA- and αB-crystallins are abundantly present in the eye lens, belong to the small heat shock protein family, and exhibit molecular chaperone activity. They are also known to interact with metal ions such as Cu(2+), and their metal-binding modulates the structure and chaperone function. Unl...
