SHD — Nicotiana attenuata

Summary

A4A49_37993 (NaSHD) in Nicotiana attenuata encodes an ATP-dependent protein folding chaperone of the Hsp90 family, possessing ATP hydrolase activity and ATP binding. It is associated with protein folding, stabilization, cellular response to heat, defense response, cell death, viral translation, secretion, oviposition, NO storage, and homeostasis. The gene product localizes to the cytosol, cytoplasm, ER lumen, perinuclear region, and plasmalemma. Related genes in other species are linked to GRP-94 and HSP90 homologs, though these associations are not established for NaSHD itself.
