Ubiquitin Carboxyl-Terminal Esterase LI (UCHLI) SI8Y Polymorphism in Patients with Cataracts
Background: Cataract is characterized by light-scattering protein aggregates. The ubiquitin-proteasome system has been proposed a role in proteolytic removal of these protein aggregates. Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal esterase L1 (UCHL1) is a de-ubiquitinating enzyme wit
