HSP70 — Asparagus officinalis

Summary

A4U43_C01F24760, the HSP70 gene on asparagus chromosome 1, encodes an uncharacterized protein with an Hsp_70_fam domain and an ATPase nucleotide-binding domain. The product possesses ATP hydrolase activity, ATP binding, heat shock protein binding, and is annotated as a protein folding chaperone. The gene is associated with response to heat, stress, and virus, as well as protein refolding, the ERAD pathway, the ER unfolded protein response, steroidogenesis, progesterone anabolism, lipid metabolism, homeostasis, and memory. It is linked to localisation in the cytoplasm, nucleus, membrane, chloroplast membrane, ER lumen, ER chaperone complex, and axonemal central pair projection. Related genes in other species include BIP4, BIP5, HSP70, SCE70, HSC-I, and HSC-2.
