Hspe1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity; protein-folding chaperone binding activity; and unfolded protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in chaperone cofactor-dependent protein refolding. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in brain; brainstem nucleus; early conceptus; and midbrain ventricular layer. Orthologous to human HSPE1 (heat shock protein family E (Hsp10) member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 Hspe1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
