Hsp90 beta also known as Hsp90AB1 or Hsp90 protein is a heat shock protein of approximately 90 kDa. It is a molecular chaperone found in most eukaryotic cells. Hsp90 beta helps in the proper folding stabilization and degradation of many proteins. Unlike its isoform Hsp90 alpha Hsp90 beta has a more stable expression and is not typically induced by stress. This protein is primarily localized in the cytosol but can also be present in other cellular compartments depending on the cellular state.
Biological function summary
Hsp90 beta functions to maintain protein homeostasis and cellular integrity. It forms part of a multi-protein chaperone complex which includes cochaperones such as Hop Hsp70 and p23 necessary for its full functionality. Hsp90 beta supports the maturation of steroid hormone receptors kinases and other client proteins. It plays an important role in the cell cycle regulation through its interaction with various proteins ensuring proper cell division and growth.
Pathways
Hsp90 beta is deeply involved in signal transduction and cellular stress response pathways. Its interaction with the Akt pathway is significant for cell survival signals. Hsp90 beta also participates in the MAP kinase pathway affecting cell growth and differentiation. The protein associates with multiple kinases including RAF and Src which are important for downstream signaling.
The dysregulation of Hsp90 beta is associated with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In cancer Hsp90 beta stabilizes many oncoproteins making it a potential therapeutic target for inhibiting tumor growth. It interacts with client proteins like the proto-oncogene c-Src promoting tumorigenesis. In neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease improper interaction between Hsp90 beta and tau proteins can contribute to disease progression impacting neuronal function.
