Gene information for HSPE1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3336
Official gene symbolHSPE1
Full nameheat shock 10kDa protein 1 (chaperonin 10)
Aliases,CPN10,GROES,HSP10,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a major heat shock protein which functions as a chaperonin. Its structure consists of a heptameric ring which binds to another heat shock protein in order to form a symmetric, functional heterodimer which enhances protein folding in an ATP-dependent manner. This gene and its co-chaperonin, HSPD1, are arranged in a head-to-head orientation on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq]
