Description

Heat Shock Proteins (HSP) are molecular chaperones found in all organisms. HSPs assist in protein folding and prevent accumulation of damaged, misfolded proteins. They are subdivided in distinct families based on their molecular weight and sequence homology. (Adapted from FBrf0228040 and FBrf0231212).
