DNAJC22 is a member of the DnaJ/Hsp40 family of co-chaperones. Like other DnaJ proteins, DNAJC22 contains a J-domain that stimulates the ATPase activity of Hsp70 molecular chaperones. This protein is involved in various aspects of protein quality control, including protein folding, refolding, and degradation.
DNAJC22 contains:
DNAJC22 participates in protein homeostasis:
DNAJC22 dysfunction is linked to:
