Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; ATP hydrolysis activity; and misfolded protein binding activity. Involved in determination of adult lifespan and response to heat. Part of chaperonin-containing T-complex. Is expressed in anal depressor muscle; mu_int_L; and mu_int_R. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Kawasaki disease; systemic lupus erythematosus; toxic shock syndrome; type 2 diabetes mellitus; and urinary tract infection. Orthologous to human HSPA1L (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 1 like); HSPA1B (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 1B); and HSPA6 (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 6).
