| Function | Molecular chaperone implicated in a wide variety of cellular processes, including protection of the proteome from stress, folding and transport of newly synthesized polypeptides, activation of proteolysis of misfolded proteins and the formation and dissociation of protein complexes. Plays a pivotal role in the protein quality control system, ensuring the correct folding of proteins, the re-folding of misfolded proteins and controlling the targeting of proteins for subsequent degradation |
| Gene References into Functions | - Data suggest that both the small heat shock protein HspB1/Hsp27 and the constitutive chaperone Hsc70/HspA8 interact with tau to prevent tau-fibril/amyloid formation.
