Summary

Alpha B crystallin is a lens protein which has some homology with the small heat shock proteins. It is expressed in tissues such as skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, renal tubular epithelium, Schwann cells, glial cells, thyroid epithelium, colonic epithelium and stratified squamous epithelium. Alpha B crystallin is also reported to be found in ubiquitinated intermediate filament inclusion bodies, such as Lewy bodies (neurofilaments), Rosenthal fibres (glial filaments) and Mallory bodies (cytokeratins). Alpha B crystallin is rarely found in neurofibrillary tangles. The role of Alpha B crystallin in these inclusion bodies is unknown, however, it may function as an accessory protein for intermediate filament aggregation.

Functions

  • May contribute to the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions. In lens epithelial cells, stabilizes the ATP6V1A protein, preventing its degradation by the proteasome (By similarity).
