Rat Alpha-crystallin B chain ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes subunit b, one of two subunits of alpha-crystallin, which is a high molecular weight, soluble aggregate and is a member of the small heat shock protein family. The encoded protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to perform mechanistically distinct functions. It acts as a molecular chaperone and is the major protein in the eye lens, maintaining the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Alternate promoter usage results in different transcript variants encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]
Uniprot Description
CRYAB: a major structural protein of the eye lens. A member of the small heat shock protein (sHSP also known as the HSP20) family. Alpha-B is expressed in the lens as well as other tissues. Elevated expression of alpha-B crystallin occurs in many neurological diseases; a missense mutation cosegregated in a family with a desmin-related myopathy.

Product Notes
The Rat Cryab cryab (Catalog #AAA2886994) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2886994 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat Cryab. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Alpha-crystallin B chain, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
