Protein
Proteins are biochemical compounds consisting of one or more polypeptides typically folded into a globular or fibrous form, facilitating a biological function. A polypeptide is a single linear polymer chain of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of...

Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Interactions
CRYBB2 has been shown to interactProtein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...

Hsp27
Heat shock protein 27 also known as heat shock protein beta-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPB1 gene.Hsp27 is a chaperone of the sHsp group among ubiquitin, α-crystallin, Hsp20 and others...

CRYGC
Crystallin, gamma C, also known as CRYGC, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CRYGC gene.- Function :Crystallins are separated into two classes: taxon-specific, or enzyme, and ubiquitous. The latter class constitutes the major proteins of vertebrate eye lens and maintains the...
