Abstract
Antibody prepared against chick lens vimentin cross-reacts with chick fibroblast vimentin and with vimentin of mammalian, reptilian, amphibian and fish lenses. This protein is localized in the epithelial and cortical fiber cells and is progressively lost from the deeper cortical cells. It is absent from the nuclear cells. Lens vimentin is readily oxidized to form high molecular components.Entities:
