This structure highlight shows where <scene name='78/781195/2klrarg_116/2'>Arg 116</scene> is located in the A chain. A mutation of this amino acid to cysteine will lead to cataracts. <ref name="alpha" />

The following structure shows where <scene name='78/781195/Arginine120b/2'>~~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> Also, when Arg is mutated to Gly, it causes desmin- related myopathy, cardiomyopathy, and cataracts. Also, this mutation reduces chaperone protection activity and in some target proteins promoted aggregation. <ref name="alpha" />

The following structure shows where <scene name='78/781195/Arginine120b/3'>Arg 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.

This highlight shows the location of the <scene name='78/781195/His_abr/1'>Histidine amino acids</scene> involved in inter-subunit bridging of Zn ions which enhances stability.<ref>PMID:22890888</ref> This is crucial as there is no protein turnover in the lens.
