Description

heat shock protein, alpha-crystallin-related, B6

Gene Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including protein homodimerization activity; protein-folding chaperone binding activity; and unfolded protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process; positive regulation of angiogenesis; and protein folding. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytosol; mitochondrion; and nuclear speck. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in brain subventricular zone; lung; retina inner nuclear layer; retina outer nuclear layer; and smooth muscle tissue. Orthologous to human HSPB6 (heat shock protein family B (small) member 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, May 2025]
