Summary
Enables heat shock protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in protein refolding and response to heat. Located in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2F; autosomal dominant distal hereditary motor neuronopathy 3; cataract (multiple); dilated cardiomyopathy 1II; and myofibrillar myopathy (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including CRYAA (crystallin alpha A); CRYAB (crystallin alpha B); and HSPB6 (heat shock protein family B (small) member 6).
