About DNAJA2

Cytogenetic location: 16q11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:46,955,362-46,973,674 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 300 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 26.8), heart (RPKM 23.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the evolutionarily conserved DNAJ/HSP40 family of proteins, which regulate molecular chaperone activity by stimulating ATPase activity. DNAJ proteins may have up to 3 distinct domains: a conserved 70-amino acid J domain, usually at the N terminus; a glycine/phenylalanine (G/F)-rich region; and a cysteine-rich domain containing 4 motifs resembling a zinc finger domain. The product of this gene works as a cochaperone of Hsp70s in protein folding and mitochondrial protein import in vitro. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
