Role of the Alpha-B-Crystallin Protein in Cardiomyopathic Disease

2024-01-18

Abstract excerpt

Alpha-B-Crystallin, a member of the small heat shock family of proteins, has been implicated in a variety of cardiomyopathies and in normal cardiac homeostasis. It is known to function as a molecular chaperone, particularly for desmin, but also interacts with a wide variety of additional proteins. The molecular chaperone function is also enhanced by signal-dependent phosphorylation at specific residues under stres...
