Anti-HSPA6 Antibody Picoband® (Biotine Conjugate)

Heat shock 70 kDa protein 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPA6 gene. The HSPA6 gene, also known as heat shock 70 kDa protein 6, encodes a member of the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family, which functions as molecular chaperones involved in protein folding, unfolding, and transport under stress conditions. HSPA6 is induced in response to cellular stressors such as heat shock, oxidative stress, and exposure to toxic agents, where it assists in protein refolding and prevents protein aggregation, thus promoting cell survival. While HSPA6 shares significant sequence homology with other HSP70 family members, it exhibits distinct expression patterns and functional properties in different tissues and cellular contexts. Its role in various physiological processes and diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases, is under investigation. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying HSPA6 function is crucial for elucidating its role in cellular stress responses and its potential as a therapeutic target for stress-related diseases.

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human HSPA6, which shares 81.2% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat HSPA6.
