Gene Symbol:

HSPA1B Homo sapiens

Full name:

heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 1B

Synonyms:

HSP70-1B, HSP70-2, HSP70.2, heat shock 70 kDa protein 1B, HSP70-1/HSP70-2, HSP70.1/HSP70.2, heat shock 70 kDa protein 1/2, heat shock 70 kDa protein 1A/1B, heat shock 70 kDa protein 2, heat shock 70kD protein 1B, heat shock 70kDa protein 1B

Genomic Location:

Chr 6: 31903503-31906010

Description:

This intronless gene encodes a 70kDa heat shock protein which is a member of the heat shock protein 70 family. In conjuction with other heat shock proteins, this protein stabilizes existing proteins against aggregation and mediates the folding of newly translated proteins in the cytosol and in organelles. It is also involved in the ubiquitin-protea...

View Full Description

This intronless gene encodes a 70kDa heat shock protein which is a member of the heat shock protein 70 family. In conjuction with other heat shock proteins, this protein stabilizes existing proteins against aggregation and mediates the folding of newly translated proteins in the cytosol and in organelles. It is also involved in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway through interaction with the AU-rich element RNA-binding protein 1. The gene is located in the major histocompatibility complex class III region, in a cluster with two closely related genes which encode similar proteins.
