CRYGC

SYNONYMS
Crystallin, gamma C, Gamma-crystallin 2-1, Gamma-crystallin 3, CRYG3, CCL.

INTRODUCTION
CRYGC is a member of the beta/gamma-crystallin family. Mammalian lens crystallins are distributed into alpha, beta, and gamma families; beta and gamma crystallins are also considered as a superfamily. Gamma-crystallins are a homogeneous group of extremely symmetrical, monomeric proteins usually missing connecting peptides and terminal extensions and are differentially regulated after early development. Three pseudogenes (gamma-E,F,G) and four gamma-crystallin genes (gamma-A,B,C,D) are structured in a genomic sector as a gene cluster. Gamma-crystallins are involved in cataract formation as a result of aging or mutations in specific genes. Mutations in CRYGC result in cataract Coppock-like (CCL) and cataract autosomal dominant (ADC).

DESCRIPTION
CRYGC Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 198 amino acids (1-174) and having a molecular mass of 23.5kDa.
CRYGC is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
