Protein Hikeshi

UniProtKB accession:  Q53FT3

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Acts as a specific nuclear import carrier for HSP70 proteins following heat-shock stress: acts by mediating the nucleoporin-dependent translocation of ATP-bound HSP70 proteins into the nucleus. HSP70 proteins import is required to protect cells from heat shock damages. Does not translocate ADP-bound HSP70 proteins into the nucleus.
