Summary
Enables protein-folding chaperone binding activity and tau protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of inclusion body assembly; positive regulation of ATPase-coupled calcium transmembrane transporter activity; and protein folding. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including male meiosis I; positive regulation of G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle; and synaptonemal complex disassembly. Predicted to be located in cell surface; meiotic spindle; and nucleus. Predicted to be part of CatSper complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol; nucleus; and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human HSPA2 (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

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.
