DNAJB11 DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member B11

Gene ID: 51726, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: DJ9; EDJ; Dj-9; ERj3; PKD6; ABBP2; ERdj3; ERj3p; ABBP-2; UNQ537; PRO1080

Summary

This gene encodes a soluble glycoprotein of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen that functions as a co-chaperone of binding immunoglobulin protein, a 70 kilodalton heat shock protein chaperone required for the proper folding and assembly of proteins in the ER. The encoded protein contains a highly conserved J domain of about 70 amino acids with a characteristic His-Pro-Asp (HPD) motif and may regulate the activity of binding immunoglobulin protein by stimulating ATPase activity.
