[Comparative study of crystallins from the nucleus and cortex of the bovine ocular lens by the gel filtration and x-ray diffraction methods]
Abstract
Water--soluble proteins (alpha-, beta H-, beta L- and gamma-crystallins) from the bovine lens nucleus and cortex were fractionated and compared by gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. X-ray diffraction patterns from concentrated gels of these proteins were obtained. It allowed to compare qualitatively the structures of different crystallins and also to identify the maxima on X-ray diffraction patterns of the lens intact tissue.
