(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID165721
Official gene symbolDNAJB8
Full nameDnaJ (Hsp40) homolog, subfamily B, member 8

Gene summaryDNAJB8 belongs to the evolutionarily conserved DNAJ/HSP40 family of proteins, which regulate molecular chaperone activity by stimulating ATPase activity. DNAJ proteins may have up to 3 distinct domains: a conserved 70-amino acid J domain, usually at the N terminus; a glycine/phenylalanine (G/F)-rich region; and a cysteine-rich domain containing 4 motifs resembling a zinc finger domain (Ohtsuka and Hata, 2000 [PubMed 11147971]).[supplied by OMIM]
