DOI: 10.1007/s12192-017-0784-y

Abstract: The structure and chaperone function of DmHsp22WT, a small Hsp of Drosophila melanogaster localized within mitochondria were examined. Mutations of conserved arginine mutants within the alpha-crystallin domain (ACD) domain (R105G, R109G, and R110G) were introduced,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-29589-y

Abstract: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide and Alpha B-crystallin (CRYAB) protein has been identified as a prognostic biomarker for CRC. We evaluated CRYAB C-802G (rs14133)polymorphism in association with CRC risk… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine"

DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.13602

Abstract: Alpha B‐crystallin (CRYAB) is overexpressed in a variety of cancers. However, little is known about its specific function and regulatory mechanism in gastric cancer. Here, we first explore the role of CRYAB in gastric cancer… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Science Advances"

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adg3032

Abstract: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, for which Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is a likely prerequisite. Due to the homology between Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) and alpha-crystallin B… read more here.
