CC -!- FUNCTION: Contributes to the transparency and refractive index of the
CC lens (By similarity). Acts as a chaperone, preventing aggregation of
CC various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions
CC (PubMed:20440841). Required for the correct formation of lens
CC intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed of BFSP1, BFSP2
CC and CRYAA (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20440841}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heteromer composed of three CRYAA and one CRYAB subunits (By
CC similarity). Inter-subunit bridging via zinc ions enhances stability,
CC which is crucial as there is no protein turn over in the lens (By
CC similarity) (PubMed:20440841). Can also form homodimers and
CC homotetramers (dimers of dimers) which serve as the building blocks of
CC homooligomers. Within homooligomers, the zinc-binding motif is created
CC from residues of 3 different molecules. His-100 and Glu-102 from one
CC molecule are ligands of the zinc ion, and His-107 and His-154 residues
CC from additional molecules complete the site with tetrahedral
CC coordination geometry (PubMed:20440841). Part of a complex required for
CC lens intermediate filament formation composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA
CC (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20440841}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P02470; P02510: CRYAB; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-15796552, EBI-7824601;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489}. Nucleus
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489}. Note=Translocates to the nucleus during
CC heat shock and resides in sub-nuclear structures known as SC35 speckles
CC or nuclear splicing speckles. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489}.
CC -!- PTM: Acetylation at Lys-70 may increase chaperone activity.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489}.
CC -!- PTM: Undergoes age-dependent proteolytical cleavage at the C-terminus.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8529423}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.
CC {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00285}.
