This study shows that loss of zebrafish Ba-crystallin (cryaba) increases age-related cataract, while loss of A-crystallin (cryaa) does not, highlighting an ontogenetic shift in crystallin function during lens development.

This study investigates the effects of α-crystallin gene knockout on zebrafish lens development, finding that loss of A-crystallin causes lens defects while loss of Ba- or Bb-crystallin does not.

This study presents a single-cell transcriptomic atlas of zebrafish lens development, identifying novel regulators and expression patterns of crystallin and other genes.

The paper investigates the cause of lens cataracts in zebrafish cloche mutants, finding that the cataract is linked to physiological stress rather than changes in crystallin genes or regulatory networks.
