Abstract:Abstract:The primary function of lens is to focus images perfectly on the retina. Lens crystallins however are flexible nanomachines that frequently accomplish their biological function by collective atomic motions in and/or out the lens. Although genetic and biochemical data on the βB2-crystallin protein are available from several sources, the correlation between conformational changes and dynamic behavior at the atomic level remains to be understood. The βB2-crystallin dimer has studied through a combination… Show more
