HIKESHI ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein heat shock protein nuclear import factor hikeshi, which is encoded by the HIKESHI gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to act as a specific nuclear import carrier for HSP70 proteins following heat-shock stress: acts by mediating the nucleoporin-dependent translocation of ATP-bound HSP70 proteins into the nucleus. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 197 residues, a mass of 21.6 kDa, and is a member of the OPI10 protein family. It is known to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm. The HIKESHI gene has been associated with the disease, Leukodystrophy. Other alias names for this target include HLD13, HSPC138, HSPC179, L7RN6, OPI10, and C11orf73.
