Recombinant human Crystallin gamma D/CRYGD protein
CRYGD belongs to the beta/gamma-crystallin family. Crystallins are the dominant structural components of the vertebrate eye lens. Mammalian lens crystallins are divided into alpha, beta, and gamma families. Gamma-crystallins have been involved in cataract formation. Defects in CRYGD are a cause of cataract autosomal dominant (ADC), cataract congenital non-nuclear polymorphic autosomal dominant (CCP), cataract congenital cerulean type 3 (CCA3) and cataract crystalline aculeiform (CACA) . Recombinant human CRYGD protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
