CC -!- FUNCTION: Contributes to the transparency and refractive index of the
CC lens. Acts as a chaperone, preventing aggregation of various proteins
CC under a wide range of stress conditions. Required for the correct
CC formation of lens intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed
CC of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heteromer composed of three CRYAA and one CRYAB subunits.
CC Inter-subunit bridging via zinc ions enhances stability, which is
CC crucial as there is no protein turn over in the lens. Can also form
CC homodimers and homotetramers (dimers of dimers) which serve as the
CC building blocks of homooligomers (By similarity). Within homooligomers,
CC the zinc-binding motif is created from residues of 3 different
CC molecules. His-100 and Glu-102 from one molecule are ligands of the
CC zinc ion, and His-107 and His-154 residues from additional molecules
CC complete the site with tetrahedral coordination geometry (By
CC similarity). Part of a complex required for lens intermediate filament
CC formation composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02470, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489}.
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:0000250|UniProtKB:P02489}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.
CC {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00285}.
