Alpha crystallin can function as a molecular chaperone in suppressing the heat-induced aggregation of other crystallins and proteins. During cataractogenesis, alpha-crystallin becomes a water-insoluble, high-molecular-weight, cross-linked aggregate. To determine whether the chaperone activity of alpha crystallin is lost during this
