HSPB6 - heat shock protein family B (small) member 6 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as HEL55; Hsp20; PPP1R91

Gene ID: 126393 | Gene type: protein coding

About HSPB6

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:35,754,566-35,757,029 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 186 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 483.5), heart (RPKM 239.6) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

This locus encodes a heat shock protein. The encoded protein likely plays a role in smooth muscle relaxation. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
