Gene name

HSPB2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

Hs.78846, MKBP

Description

Heat shock 27kDa protein 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the superfamily of small heat-shock proteins containing a conservative alpha-crystallin domain at the C-terminal part of the molecule. The protein is expressed preferentially in the heart and skeletal muscle. This protein regulates Myotonic Dystrophy Protein Kinase, which plays an important role in maintenance of muscle structure and function. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
