Hspa2 heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 2 [Rattus norvegicus (Norway rat)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: Hspa2provided by RGD

Primary source: RGD:620664
See related: Ensembl:ENSRNOG00000006472 AllianceGenome:RGD:620664
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Rattus norvegicus
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus
Also known as: Hst70; Hspt70
Summary: Enables chaperone binding activity and tau protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chaperone cofactor-dependent protein refolding; positive regulation of ATPase activity; and positive regulation of ATPase-coupled calcium transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including male gamete generation; positive regulation of G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle; and synaptonemal complex disassembly. Predicted to be located in cell surface; meiotic spindle; and nucleus. Predicted to be part of CatSper complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol; nucleus; and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human HSPA2 (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
