Hypothetical protein CICLE_v10011260mg Mouse mAb for Tangerine

The protein encoded by CICLE_v10011260mg gene belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family. In cooperation with other chaperones, the protein mediates the folding of newly translated polypeptides in the cytosol as well as within organelles. These chaperones participate in all these processes through their ability to recognize nonnative conformations of other proteins. They bind extended peptide segments with a net hydrophobic character exposed by polypeptides during translation and membrane translocation, or following stress-induced damage.
