Crystal structure of R120G disease mutant of human αB-crystallin domain dimer shows closure of a groove.

Journal of molecular biology - 22 Apr 2011

Clark A R, Naylor C E, Bagnéris C, Keep N H, Slingsby C

Abstract excerpt

Small heat shock proteins form large cytosolic assemblies from an "α-crystallin domain" (ACD) flanked by sequence extensions. Mutation of a conserved arginine in the ACD of several human small heat shock protein family members causes many common inherited diseases of the lens and neuromuscular sy...
