Summary: A structural constituent of eye lens. Acts upstream of or within lens fiber cell differentiation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including sensory organ; skeleton; and tarsus. Used to study cataract 2 multiple types and cataract 4 multiple types. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract 4 multiple types and cataract 7. Orthologous to human CRYGD (crystallin gamma D). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
