Product name:Rat heat shock protein 70,hSP-70 ELISA Kit
Description:
The HSP70 family is a set of highly conserved proteins that are induced by a variety of biological stresses, including heat stress,in every organism in which the proteins have been examined.When not interacting with a substrate peptide, Hsp70 is usually in an ATP bound state. Hsp70 by itself is characterized by a very weak ATPase activity, such that spontaneous hydrolysis will not occur for many minutes.Hsp70 also aids in transmembrane transport of proteins, by stabilizing them in a partially-folded state.Hsp70 proteins can act to protect cells from thermal or oxidative stress.Hsp70 seems to be able to participate in disposal of damaged or defective proteins.
