Name | chaperonin 60 beta | Brief Description | chaperonin 60 beta |
TAIR Computational Description | chaperonin 60 beta;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | encodes the beta subunit of the chloroplast chaperonin 60, a homologue of bacterial GroEL. Mutants in this gene develops lesions on its leaves, expresses systemic acquired resistance (SAR) and develops accelerated cell death to heat shock stress. The protein has molecular chaperone activity for suppressing protein aggregation in vitro. |
