heat shock 70 kD protein 1L; heat shock 70 kD protein 1-like; heat shock 70 kD protein 1-hom; HSP70-hom (HSPA1L)

Function

• in cooperation with other chaperones, Hsp70s stabilize preexistent proteins against aggregation & mediate folding of newly translated polypeptides in the cytosol as well as within organelles.
• recognition of nonnative conformations of other proteins
• binding to extended peptide segments with a net hydrophobic character exposed by polypeptides during translation & membrane translocation, or following stress-induced damage

Structure

belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family

Expression

• expressed in spermatids
• not induced by heat shock

More general terms

• heat shock protein [hsp]-70 family
