'''Crystalline''' is found in the lens of the eye accounting for the transparency and probably increasing the refractive index of it.  α-, β-, γ-, δ-crystalline are named according to the order they are eluted by gel filtration. δ-crystalline is found in avian and reptilian lenses.<ref>PMID:12729747</ref>
