FEBS Journal, 2007 Crystallins are the major proteins of a mammalian eye lens. The topologically similar eye lens proteins, β- and γ-crystallins, are the prototype and founding members of the βγ-crystallin superfamily.

Genetics of crystallins: cataract and beyond.
Experimental Eye Research, 2009 The crystallins were discovered more than 100 years ago by Morner (1893. Untersuchungen der Proteinsubstanzen in den lichtbrechenden Medien des Auges. Z. Physiol. Chem. 18, 61-106) as the main structural proteins of the vertebrate eye lens.
