Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * The CRYBB3 gene is located on chromosome 19p13.1. * It is a large gene with a length of approximately 30.5 kilobases. * It contains 21 exons and 19 introns. * The protein encoded by CRYBB3 is a glycoprotein that is expressed in various cell types of the eye, including the lens, iris, ciliary body, and retina. **Pathways and functions:** * The CRYBB3 gene is involved in the development of the lens during embryonic eye formation. * It is a key component of the lens epithelial cell layer, which produces the protein responsible for lens transparency. * The protein encoded by CRYBB3 is also expressed in the ciliary body, where it is involved in the transport of nutrients to the lens. * It is involved in the regulation of the blood-aqueous barrier, which prevents the entry of harmful substances into the eye. * CRYBB3 is also involved in the transduction of visual signals from the retina to the brain. **Clinical significance:** Mutations in the CRYBB3 gene have been linked to several eye disorders, including cataracts, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). These disorders are characterized by the development of a cloudy or opaque lens, which can lead to vision loss. **Additional notes:** * The CRYBB3 gene is also known as SLC24A3. * It is a highly conserved gene, with a similar protein found in other vertebrates. * Studies have shown that mutations in the CRYBB3 gene can lead to the development of eye diseases in animals.
