heat shock cognate 71 kD protein (heat shock 70 kD protein 8, HSPA8, HSC70, HSP73, HSPA10)

Function: - chaperone - isoform 2 may function as an endogenous inhibitory regulator of HSC70 by competing the cochaperones - interacts with HSPH1/HSP105 (putative) - interacts with PACRG & TSC2 - phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR - uncoating enzyme, drives disassembly of clathrin coat [1,2]? Structure: belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family Compartment: - cytoplasm, melanosome - translocates rapidly from cytoplasm to nuclei, & especially to the nucleoli, upon heat shock Alternative splicing: named isoforms=2 Expression: - ubiquitous - constitutively synthesized
