The congenital cataract-linked G61C mutation destabilizes γD-crystallin and promotes non-native aggregation.
γD-crystallin is one of the major structural proteins in human eye lens. The solubility and stability of γD-crystallin play a crucial role in maintaining the optical properties of the lens during the life span of an individual. Previous study has shown that the inherited mutation G61C results in aut...
