Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Quantitate the interaction of mutant (R116C) and wildtype human alphaA crystallins with actin. METHODS: AlphaA crystallins, expressed in a recombinant system, were purified, followed by passage through an actin affinity column. RESULTS: Binding of mutant alphaA crystallin was significantly less than binding of wildtype alphaA crystallin. CONCLUSIONS: The R116C mutation of alphaA crystallin found in human...
