DNAJB9 DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member B9

Gene ID: 4189, updated on 19-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: MDG1; ERdj4; MDG-1; MST049; MSTP049

Summary

This gene is a member of the J protein family. J proteins function in many cellular processes by regulating the ATPase activity of 70 kDa heat shock proteins. This gene is a member of the type 2 subgroup of DnaJ proteins. The encoded protein is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. This protein is induced by endoplasmic reticulum stress and plays a role in protecting stressed cells from apoptosis. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
