About Crygd

Summary

A structural constituent of eye lens. Involved in lens fiber cell differentiation and response to peptide hormone. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract 4 multiple types and cataract 7. Orthologous to human CRYGD (crystallin gamma D). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
