Summary
Predicted to enable chaperone binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and unfolded protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in chaperone-mediated protein folding; negative regulation of cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process; and positive regulation of angiogenesis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; cytosol; and nucleolus. 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, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
