About Crygc

Summary

Predicted to be a structural constituent of eye lens. Acts upstream of or within camera-type eye development. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in eye; ileum; reproductive system; and urogenital sinus. Used to study cataract 2 multiple types. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract and cataract 2 multiple types. Orthologous to human CRYGC (crystallin gamma C). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
