Hspa9 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables enzyme binding activity. Involved in iron-sulfur cluster assembly; negative regulation of hematopoietic stem cell differentiation; and negative regulation of hemopoiesis. Acts upstream of or within protein export from nucleus. Located in mitochondrion. Is active in mitochondrial matrix. Is expressed in early conceptus; germ cell of gonad; heart; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease and autosomal dominant sideroblastic anemia 4. Orthologous to human HSPA9 (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 9).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Hspa9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
