Accumulation and Aberrant Modifications of α-Crystallins in Anterior Polar Cataracts [PDF]
Crystallins are the major proteins found in the lens, and the localization of specific crystallins is well known. Overexpression and accumulation of αB-crystallin has been observed in response to stress conditions or in certain diseases, such as brain ...

A potential role for endogenous proteins as sacrificial sunscreens and antioxidants in human tissues
Excessive ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure of the skin is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Although both exogenous sunscreens and endogenous tissue components (including melanins and tryptophan-derived compounds) reduce UVR penetration, the

Abstract The synthesis of heteronuclear alkyne analogs incorporating heavier group 14 elements (R1−C≡E−R2, E = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) has posed a longstanding challenge, with no previous reports on isolable compounds of this nature. Until now, neutral silynes (R1−C≡Si(L)−R2) and germynes (R1−C≡Ge(L)−R2) stabilized by a Lewis base have achieved ...

Identification and characterization of post-translational modifications in human lens beta crystallins during the aging process [PDF]
The major function of human lens is to focus the incident light on the retina without light scattering. The transparency and the precise refraction depend on the close packing of water-soluble structural proteins, called crystallins.

Post-translational Modifications, Structure and Function of Human Lens Crystallins [PDF]
Cataract is an opacification of the lens causing reduction in vision over time. It is one of the leading causes of vision loss among adults age 55 and older.

Analysis of human lens crystallins and identification of post-translational modifications by mass spectrometry [PDF]
Post-translational modification as a result of aging or disease is thought to disrupt the proper close packing of the lens crystallins, causing a change in the refractive index and opacity of the lens.
