HSPA4
Heat shock 70 kDa protein 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''HSPA4'' gene. The protein encoded by this gene was originally suggested to be a member of the heat shock protein 70 family. However it is now known that human HSPA4 is an equivalent to mouse the Apg-2 protein and is a member of the Hsp110 family. Interactions HSPA4 has been shown to interact with: * APAF1 * DNAJB1, * HDAC1, * HSF1, * HSPBP1, * Histone deacetylase 2, * NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (quinone 1), * STUB1, and * TTC1 Tetratricopeptide repeat protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''TTC1'' gene.

STUB1
STUB1 (STIP1 homology and U-Box containing protein 1) is a human gene that codes for the protein CHIP (C terminus of HSC70-Interacting Protein). Function The CHIP protein encoded by this gene binds to and inhibits the ATPase activity of the chaperone (protein), chaperone proteins HSPA8, HSC70 and Hsp70, HSP70 and blocks the forward reaction of the HSC70-HSP70 substrate-binding cycle. In addition, CHIP possesses ubiquitin ligase, E3 ubiquitin ligase activity and promotes ubiquitylation, mainly of chaperone-bound misfolded proteins. CHIP enhances HSP70 induction during acute stress and also mediates its turnover during the stress recovery process. Hence CHIP appears to maintain protein homeostasis by controlling chaperone levels during stress and recovery. Mutations in STUB1 cause spinocerebellarataxiatype 16. Interactions STUB1 has been shown to Protein-protein interaction, interact with: * C-Raf, * DNAJB1, * HSPA1A, * HSPA4, * HSPA8, * Parkin (ligase), and * RUNX2. ...

Protein
Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residues. Proteins perform a vast array of functions within organisms, including catalysing metabolic reactions, DNA replication, responding to stimuli, providing structure to cells and organisms, and transporting molecules from one location to another. Proteins differ from one another primarily in their sequence of amino acids, which is dictated by the nucleotide sequence of their genes, and which usually results in protein folding into a specific 3D structure that determines its activity. A linear chain of amino acid residues is called a polypeptide. A protein contains at least one long polypeptide. Short polypeptides, containing less than 20–30 residues, are rarely considered to be proteins and are commonly called peptides. The individual amino acid residues are bonded together by peptide bonds and adjacent amino acid residues. The sequence of amino acid residue ...

Gene
In biology, the word gene (from , ; "...Wilhelm Johannsen coined the word gene to describe the Mendelian units of heredity..." meaning ''generation'' or ''birth'' or ''gender'') can have several different meanings. The Mendelian gene is a basic unit of heredity and the molecular gene is a sequence of nucleotides in DNA that is transcribed to produce a functional RNA. There are two types of molecular genes: protein-coding genes and noncoding genes. During gene expression, the DNA is first copied into RNA. The RNA can be directly functional or be the intermediate template for a protein that performs a function. The transmission of genes to an organism's offspring is the basis of the inheritance of phenotypic traits. These genes make up different DNA sequences called genotypes. Genotypes along with environmental and developmental factors determine what the phenotypes will be. Most biological traits are under the influence of polygenes (many different genes) as well as gen ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
