Gene: DNAJB8

Alternate names for this Gene: CT156|DJ6

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the DNAJ/HSP40 family of proteins that regulate chaperone activity. This family member suppresses aggregation and toxicity of polyglutamine proteins, and the C-terminal tail is essential for this activity. It has been implicated as a cancer-testis antigen and as a cancer stem-like cell antigen involved in renal cell carcinoma.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 3

Location in Chromosome : 3q21.3

Description of this Gene: DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member B8

Type of Gene: protein-coding
