- Background
- Heat shock protein 90kDa beta member 1 (HSP90B1), known also as endoplasmin, GRP94, is a chaperone protein that in humans is encoded by the HSP90B1 gene. It is mapped to chromosome 12q23.3. This gene encodes a member of a family of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) -metabolizing molecular chaperones with roles in stabilizing and folding other proteins. The encoded protein is localized to melanosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum. Expression of this protein is associated with a variety of pathogenic states, including tumor formation.
