Abstract excerpt

The full length cDNA sequence for the lens-specific intermediate filament protein, CP49, from chicken is presented. The sequence contains features typical of the other intermediate filament proteins, including two major alpha-helical regions, helix I and II and appropriate linker regions. CP49 lacks a C-terminal non-alpha-helical domain and is only the second intermediate filament protein to be described missing...
