hsp-60

Gene

hsp-60

Protein

Chaperonin homolog Hsp-60, mitochondrial

Organism

Caenorhabditis elegans

Length

568 amino acids

Function

Implicated in mitochondrial protein import and macromolecular assembly. May facilitate the correct folding of imported proteins. May also prevent misfolding and promote the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under stress conditions in the mitochondrial matrix (By similarity).

Similarity

Belongs to the chaperonin (HSP60) family.

Mass
