| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.3.0) Enables protein folding chaperone. Involved in protein folding. Acts upstream of or within binding activity of sperm to zona pellucida; negative regulation of apoptotic process; and response to heat. Located in cell body and mitochondrion. Part of zona pellucida receptor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; heart; and humerus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including brain ischemia; obesity; toxic shock syndrome; type 2 diabetes mellitus; and urinary tract infection. Orthologous to human HSPA1B (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 1B). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene results in increased susceptibility to focal cerebral ischemic injury.
