Application

Anti-DNAJB1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting (1:500).

Biochem/physiol Actions

DnaJ (Hsp40) homolog, subfamily B, member 1 (DNAJB1) interacts with heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and can stimulate its ATPase activity. It stimulates the association between heat shock cognate 70 kDa protein (HSC70) and Hsc70-interacting protein (HIP). In association with HSP70, HSP40 favors adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent protein refolding, transport, and interaction. It acts as a negative regulator melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) based mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein pathway and mitogen-inducible gene 6 (MIG6). It also blocks p53 mediated apoptosis by destabilizing programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5). Hsp40 mediates viral ribonucleoproteins (vRNPs) import and may serve as a potential antiviral target.
