Hspa1l - heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 1 like

Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; ATP hydrolysis activity; and misfolded protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chaperone cofactor-dependent protein refolding; positive regulation of protein targeting to mitochondrion; and protein refolding. Predicted to act upstream of or within binding activity of sperm to zona pellucida. Located in mitochondrial matrix. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Kawasaki disease; major depressive disorder; schizophrenia; systemic lupus erythematosus; and uveitis. Orthologous to human HSPA1L (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 1 like). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
