Description
Background
HSPE1(heat shock 10kDa protein 1 (chaperonin 10)), also called CPN10, GROES, CHAPERONIN 10 HOMOLOG, cpn10 HOMOLOG or HSP10, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPE1 gene. GroES is a heptameric ring of identical 10.4-kD subunits that binds to each end of GroEL to form a symmetric, functional heterodimer. The HSP10 gene consists of 4 exons. The HSPE1 gene is mapped to 2q33.1. The transcriptional activity of the promoter fragment in the HSP60 direction is approximately twice that in the HSP10 direction under normal growth conditions; upon heat shock, promoter activity in either direction increased by a factor of approximately 12. Mutational drifts performed in vitro with 4 different enzymes indicated the GroES overexpression doubled the number of accumulating mutations, and promoted the folding of enzyme variants carrying mutations in the protein core and/or mutations with higher destabilizing effects.
