Heat shock protein beta-6

Heat shock protein beta-6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPB6 gene. HSPB6, also known as hsp20, is a 17-kDa member of the small heat shock family of proteins. It is expressed in multiple tissues; however, HSPB6 is most highly and constitutively expressed in different types of muscle including vascular, airway, colonic, bladder, uterine smooth muscle, cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle. HSPB6 has specific functions for vasodilation, platelet function, and insulin resistance and in smooth and cardiac muscle.

Each vial contains 4mg Trehalose, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na₂HPO₄, 0.05mg NaN₃.

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Atherosclerosis, Cardiovascular, Chaperones, Heat Shock Proteins, Protein Trafficking, Signal Transduction

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.
