- Background
- Heat shock 60KD protein (HSP60) is a member of the chaperonin class of protein factors and the nuclear encoded mitochondrial HSP60 is required for the assembly into oligomeric complexes of proteins imported into the mitochondrial matrix. HSP60 is linked head to head comprising approximately 17 kb and consist of 12 exons. HSP60 is a self-molecule, it can downregulate adaptive immune responses by upregulating Tregs innately through TLR2 signaling.

- Tissue Specificity
- Expressed in a variety of tissues. High levels in lung, adrenal, xiphoid, adipose tissue, heart and striated and smooth muscle, lower levels in the CNS. Adult levels are much higher in the slow-twitch soleus muscle than in the fast-twitch rectus femoris and extensor digitorum muscles. .
- Applications
- IHC,WB
- Purification
- Ascites
- Concentration
- Adding 1 ml of PBS buffer will yield a concentration of 100 μg/ml.
- Form
- Lyophilized
- Reconstitution
- Add 1ml of PBS buffer will yield a concentration of 100ug/ml.
- Function
- Implicated in mitochondrial protein import and macromolecular assembly. May facilitate the correct folding of imported proteins. May also prevent misfolding and promote the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under stress conditions in the mitochondrial matrix.
