HSP60, 1-573aa, Human, His tagged, Recombinant, E.coli

Heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) is a mitochondrial chaperonin that is typically held responsible for the transportation and refolding of proteins from the cytoplasm into the mitochondrial matrix. HSP60 is the ~60kDa mammalian equivalent to GroEL of E.coli. Process of HSP60 is regulated by the cochaperonin HSP10, a single heptameric ring of ~10kD subunits that forms a complex with HSP60. HSP10 coordinates the ATPase activity of the HSP60 subunits to allow the release of bound polypeptide in a manner productive for folding.
