crystallins - CISMeF

Preferred Label : crystallins;

MeSH definition : A heterogeneous family of water-soluble structural proteins found in cells of the vertebrate lens. The presence of these proteins accounts for the transparency of the lens. The family is composed of four major groups, alpha, beta, gamma, and delta, and several minor groups, which are classed on the basis of size, charge, immunological properties, and vertebrate source. Alpha, beta, and delta crystallins occur in avian and reptilian lenses, while alpha, beta, and gamma crystallins occur in all other lenses.;

MeSH synonym : lens proteins; crystallin; proteins, lens;

MeSH Hyperonym : eye lens protein; Lens Protein, Eye; Protein, Eye Lens;

MeSH annotation : not for crystalline lens ( LENS, CRYSTALLINE);
