Hsp70

CLONING

Fathallah et al. (1993) reported the cloning of a human heat-shock protein (hsp), which they designated hsp70 RY. The cDNA was isolated from an EBV-transformed B-cell line from a patient with leukocyte adhesion molecule deficiency. The predicted 701-amino acid protein has an N-terminal ATP-binding domain and a C-terminal peptide-binding domain characteristic of hsp proteins. Northern blot analysis detected a 3.0-kb RNA in the patient's EBV cell line.

MAPPING

Fathallah et al. (1993) used in situ hybridization to map the HSPA4 gene to chromosome 5q31.1-q31.2. ... More on the omim web site
