PFE0595w

Gene
PFE0595w
Protein
Probable prefoldin subunit 6
Organism
Plasmodium falciparum (isolate 3D7)
Length
119 amino acids
Function
Binds specifically to cytosolic chaperonin (c-CPN) and transfers target proteins to it. Binds to nascent polypeptide chain and promotes folding in an environment in which there are many competing pathways for nonnative proteins (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the prefoldin subunit beta family.
Mass
