Description
Product Characteristics: The product encoded by this gene belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family which contains both heat-inducible and constitutively expressed members. The latter are called heat-shock cognate proteins. This gene encodes a heat-shock cognate protein. This protein plays a role in the control of cell proliferation. It may also act as a chaperone. Synonyms: Polyclonal HSPA9 antibody, Anti-HSPA9 antibody, heat shock 70kDa protein 9, mortalin antibody, CSA antibody, GRP75 antibody, HSPA9B antibody, MGC4500 antibody, MOT antibody, MOT2 antibody, MTHSP75 antibody, PBP74 antibody, mot-2 antibody.
Target Information: This gene encodes a member of the heat shock protein 70 gene family. The encoded protein is primarily localized to the mitochondria but is also found in the endoplasmic reticulum, plasma membrane and cytoplasmic vesicles. This protein is a heat-shock cognate protein. This protein plays a role in cell proliferation, stress response and maintenance of the mitochondria. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 2.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
