The interaction of αA- and αB-crystallins with Cu<sup>2+</sup> ion modulates their structure and chaperone-like activity which is important for lens transparency. Theoretical analysis of the dependences of fluorescence intensity of native αA- and αB-crystallins and αA- and αB-crystallins modified by peroxynitrite on concentration of Cu<sup>2+</sup> ions has been carried out. It has been shown that one subunit of native αA-crystallin contains two equivalent Cu<sup>2+</sup>-binding sites. The micr ...[more]
