pfdn3

Gene
pfdn3
Protein
Probable prefoldin subunit 3
Organism
Dictyostelium discoideum
Length
195 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 alpha family.
