Heat shock 70 kDa protein Mouse mAb for Straw mushroom

Heat shock 70 kDa protein is a member of the heat shock protein 70 family. Proteins with similar structure exist in virtually all living organisms. In conjunction 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. In order to properly fold non-native proteins, this protein interacts with the hydrophobic peptide segments of proteins in an ATP-controlled fashion. Its role in protein folding contributes to its function in signal transduction, apoptosis, protein homeostasis, and cell growth and differentiation.
