Fluorescence resonance energy transfer study of subunit exchange in human lens crystallins and congenital cataract crystallin mutants.

Protein science : a publication of the Protein Society - 1 Jul 2006

Liang Jack J, Liu Bing-Fen

Abstract excerpt

Lens alpha-crystallin is an oligomeric protein with a molecular mass of 500-1000 kDa and a polydispersed assembly. It consists of two types of subunits, alphaA and alphaB, each with a molecular mass of 20 kDa. The subunits also form homo-oligomers in some other tissues and in vitro. Their quaternary structures, which are dynamic and characterized by subunit exchange, have been studied by many techniques,...
