Lens and eye toxicity research, 1989•europepmc.orgA family of related polypeptides of molecular weights 97 kd, 93 kd, 64 kd, 62 kd, 51 kd and
49 kd is unique to chick lens fiber cells, and is not found in the epithelial cells. Cross-
reacting proteins were also detected in bovine and human lenses. This family of membrane-
associated proteins is cytoskeletal in nature and localized to the beaded-chain filaments.
