The following structure shows where <scene name='78/781195/Arginine120b/1'>Arginine 120 on B chain</scene> is located. The mutation of this amino acid in the B chain of crystalline gene decreased interaction with wild-type CRYAA and CRYAB. However, it increases interactions with CRBB2 and CRYGC leading to cytoplasmic aggregation. <ref>PMID:12601044</ref> | The following structure shows where <scene name='78/781195/Arginine120b/1'>Arginine 120 on B chain</scene> is located.
