Background
-
Function
alpha A Crystallin contributes to the transparency and refractive index of the lens. In its oxidized form (absence of intramolecular disulfide bond), acts as a chaperone, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions. Required for the correct formation of lens intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA[1][2][3][4][5][6].

Subunit
Heteropolymer composed of three CRYAA and one CRYAB subunits (PubMed:20836128). Inter-subunit bridging via zinc ions enhances stability, which is crucial as there is no protein turn over in the lens (PubMed:22890888). Can also form homodimers and homotetramers (dimers of dimers) which serve as the building blocks of homooligomers (PubMed:17909943, PubMed:23255486, PubMed:31792453). Within homooligomers, the zinc-binding motif is created from residues of 3 different molecules. His-100 and Glu-102 from one molecule are ligands of the zinc ion, and His-107 and His-154 residues from additional molecules complete the site with tetrahedral coordination geometry (By similarity). Part of a complex required for lens intermediate filament formation composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA (PubMed:28935373)
