CRYGB Rabbit Pab
Leader in Biomolecular Solutions for Life Science CRYGB Rabbit pAb Catalog No.: A14569 Basic Information Background Catalog No. Crystallins are separated into two classes: taxon-specific, or enzyme, and ubiquitous. A14569 The latter class constitutes the major proteins of vertebrate eye lens and maintains the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Since lens central fiber cells lose their Observed MW nuclei during development, these crystallins are made and then retained throughout 21kDa life, making them extremely stable proteins. Mammalian lens crystallins are divided into alpha, beta, and gamma families; beta and gamma crystallins are also considered as a Calculated MW superfamily. Alpha and beta families are further divided into acidic and basic groups. 20kDa Seven protein regions exist in crystallins: four homologous motifs, a connecting peptide, and N- and C-terminal extensions. Gamma-crystallins are a homogeneous group of Category highly symmetrical, monomeric proteins typically lacking connecting peptides and terminal extensions. They are differentially regulated after early development. Four Primary antibody gamma-crystallin genes (gamma-A through gamma-D) and three pseudogenes (gamma-E, gamma-F, gamma-G) are tandemly organized in a genomic segment as a Applications gene cluster. Whether due to aging or mutations in specific genes, gamma-crystallins WB have been involved in cataract formation.

Extensive studies in vitro have revealed a spectrum of alterations to the structure and function of these proteins including shifts in the size of the oligomer, modulation of subunit exchange and modification of their affinity to client proteins. Although mouse models of these mutants were instrumental in identifying changes in cellular proliferation and lens development, a direct comparative analysis of their effects on lens proteostasis has not been performed. -

Congenital Polymorphic Cataract Associated with a G to a Splice Site Mutation in the Human Beta-Crystallin Gene Cryβa3/A1
Molecular Vision 2012; 18:2213-2220 <http://www.molvis.org/molvis/v18/a234> © 2012 Molecular Vision Received 6 April 2012 | Accepted 4 August 2012 | Published 8 August 2012 Congenital polymorphic cataract associated with a G to A splice site mutation in the human beta-crystallin gene CRYβA3/A1 Yibo Yu, Jinyu Li, Jia Xu, Qiwei Wang, Yinhui Yu, Ke Yao (The first two authors contributed equally to the work) Eye Center of the 2nd Affiliated Hospital, Medical College of Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China Purpose: To identify the underlying genetic defect in four generations of a Chinese family affected with bilateral congenital polymorphic cataracts. Methods: Family history and clinical data were recorded. The phenotype was documented using slit-lamp photography. Genomic DNA samples were extracted from peripheral blood of family members. Candidate genes were amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and screened for mutations on both strands using bidirectional sequencing. Results: Affected individuals exhibited variable opacities in the embryonic nucleus, sutures, and peripheral cortical opacities. The phenotype for this family was identified as polymorphic. Direct sequencing revealed a splice site mutation (c.215+1G>A) at the first base of intron 3 of the crystallin beta A3/A1 (CRYBA3/A1) gene. This mutation co-segregated with all affected individuals in the family and was not found in unaffected family members or in 100 unrelated controls. Conclusions: Our results identified a recurrent c.215+1G>A mutation in CRYBA3/A1 in a polymorphic congenital cataract family, summarized the variable phenotypes among the patients, which expanded the phenotypic spectrum of congenital cataract in a different ethnic background, and suggested a mechanism that influences cataractogenesis. -

A Recurrent Mutation in CRYGD Is Associated with Autosomal Dominant Congenital Coralliform Cataract in Two Unrelated Chinese Families
Molecular Vision 2011; 17:1085-1089 <http://www.molvis.org/molvis/v17/a123> © 2011 Molecular Vision Received 29 March 2011 | Accepted 19 April 2011 | Published 28 April 2011 A recurrent mutation in CRYGD is associated with autosomal dominant congenital coralliform cataract in two unrelated Chinese families Guoxing Yang,1 Chunlei Xiong,2 Shanlan Li,2 Yuanyuan Wang,2 Jialiang Zhao1 1Department of Opthalmology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China; 2Department of Opthalmology, Hai Cheng Rehabilitation Hospital, Liaoning, China Purpose: Congenital cataract is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous lens disorder. The purpose of this study was to identify the mutation responsible for autosomal dominant congenital coralliform cataracts in two Chinese families and to investigate the relationship between virulence genes and lens morphology. Methods: Patients received a physical examination, and blood samples were collected for DNA extraction. Mutation analysis was performed by direct sequencing of the candidate genes: gammaC-crystallin (CRYGC), gammaD-crystallin (CRYGD), gammaS-crystallin (CRYGS), gap-junction protein, alpha 8 (GJA8), gap-junction protein, alpha 3 (GJA3), and alphaA-crystallin (CRYAA). Results: The affected individuals in two families had congenital coralliform cataracts. Mutational analysis of the CRYGD identified a C→A transversion at nucleotide position c.70 in exon 2, which resulted in a threonine substitution for proline at amino-acid residue 24 (P24T). This mutation was identified in all affected individuals but was not found in healthy relatives or 100 control chromosomes from the same ethnic background. Conclusions: Our results indicated that the P24T mutation of CRYGD was responsible for two Chinese pedigrees with congenital coralliform cataracts. -

Bergen1 1Department of Molecular Ophthalmogenetics, 2Department of Cellular Quality Control, Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience- KNAW, Meibergdreef 47, 1105 BA Amsterdam, The Netherlands Purpose: Retinal ischemia appears to lead to alterations in retinal transcript levels of a group of genes known to be abundantly expressed in the lens. Our purpose is to study whether these alterations are truly the result of retinal ischemia or whether they could be caused by contamination of the retinal tissue with trace amounts of lens tissue. Methods: Changes occurring in the retinal gene expression profile after induction of retinal ischemia were assessed by oligonucleotide microarrays and by real-time quantitative PCR. Results: Microarray analysis of the retinal gene expression profile after 5 or 60 min ischemia showed altered transcript levels for a group of genes with functions related to “structural constituent of eye lens” (23 genes, predominantly crystallins). Subsequent qPCR assays for this set of genes showed extremely high variations in transcript levels between individual animals of both control and ischemia-treated groups. However, the relative transcript levels, or expression profile, of these genes was constant in all samples. The transcript levels of these genes were on average 2624-times higher in tissue samples isolated from the superficial layers of the total lens.
