Functional narrative |
p23 is a co-chaperone of the heat shock protein Hsp90. p23 binds to Hsp90 in its ATP-bound state and, on its own, interacts specifically with non-native proteins. The binding site for Hsp90 is contained in the folded domain of p23 and for efficient interaction of p23 with non-native proteins both the folded domain and the C-terminal unstructured region are required. Molecular chaperone that localizes to genomic response elements in a hormone-dependent manner and disrupts receptor-mediated transcriptional activation, by promoting disassembly of transcriptional regulatory complexes.
