Secondary Information

Protein Function Important for eye development and maintenance.structural components of the vertebrate eye lens.
Biochemical Properties Homo/heterodimer, or complexes of higher-order.The structure of beta-crystallin oligomers seems to be stabilized through interactions between the N-terminal arms.also contain C terminal extension.Has a two-domain beta-structure, folded into four very similar Greek key motifs.
