======= HSPB6 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: HSPB6 * **Official Name**: heat shock protein family B (small) member 6 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=126393|126393]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/O14558|O14558]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=HSPB6&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20HSPB6|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/610695|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: This locus encodes a heat shock protein. The encoded protein likely plays a role in smooth muscle relaxation. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]. * **UniProt Summary**: Small heat shock protein which functions as a molecular chaperone probably maintaining denatured proteins in a folding- competent state. Seems to have versatile functions in various biological processes. Plays a role in regulating muscle function such as smooth muscle vasorelaxation and cardiac myocyte contractility. May regulate myocardial angiogenesis implicating KDR. Overexpression mediates cardioprotection and angiogenesis after induced damage. Stabilizes monomeric YWHAZ thereby supporting YWHAZ chaperone-like activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14717697, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19845507, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20843828, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22427880, ECO:0000305, ECO:0000305|PubMed:22794279}. |Crystallin| |HSP20| |negative regulation of cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process| |structural constituent of eye lens| |negative regulation of striated muscle cell apoptotic process| |negative regulation of muscle cell apoptotic process| |regulation of cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process| |regulation of striated muscle cell apoptotic process| |chaperone-mediated protein folding| |regulation of muscle cell apoptotic process| |chaperone binding| |unfolded protein binding| |regulation of muscle contraction| |positive regulation of angiogenesis| |positive regulation of vasculature development| |protein folding| |regulation of muscle system process| |regulation of angiogenesis| |regulation of vasculature development| |regulation of system process| |protein homodimerization activity| |negative regulation of apoptotic process| |negative regulation of programmed cell death| |negative regulation of cell death| |regulation of anatomical structure morphogenesis| |positive regulation of developmental process| |regulation of apoptotic process| |regulation of programmed cell death| |regulation of cell death| |positive regulation of multicellular organismal process| |extracellular region| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp185|L-BMAA 500 to 750μM on day4 R04 exp185]]|1.76| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
