UniProt functional annotation for Q9H3U1

UniProt code: Q9H3U1.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Acts as co-chaperone for HSP90. Prevents the stimulation of HSP90AB1 ATPase activity by AHSA1. Positive factor in promoting PGR function in the cell. May be necessary for proper folding of myosin (Potential). Necessary for normal cell proliferation. Necessary for normal myotube formation and myosin accumulation during muscle cell development. May play a role in erythropoiesis in stroma cells in the spleen (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12119110, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16478993, ECO:0000305}.
 
Subunit: Interacts with PGR isoforms A and B as well as with NR3C1 in the absence of ligand, and with HSP90AB1. Binding to HSP90AB1 involves 2 UNC45A monomers per HSP90AB1 dimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16478993}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16478993}. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16478993}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16478993}. Note=Predominant in the perinuclear region. Little protein in the nucleus.
Tissue specificity: Detected in peripheral blood leukocytes, bone marrow, adrenal gland, trachea, spinal cord, thyroid, lymph node and stomach. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12119110}.
