| UniProt functional annotation for P46598 | |||
| UniProt code: P46598. |
| Organism: | Candida albicans (strain SC5314 / ATCC MYA-2876) (Yeast). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Debaryomycetaceae; Candida/Lodderomyces clade; Candida. | |
| Function: | Molecular chaperone that promotes the maturation, structural maintenance and proper regulation of specific target proteins involved for instance in cell cycle control and signal transduction. Undergoes a functional cycle that is linked to its ATPase activity. This cycle probably induces conformational changes in the client proteins, thereby causing their activation. Interacts dynamically with various co- chaperones that modulate its substrate recognition, ATPase cycle and chaperone function (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Domain: | The TPR repeat-binding motif mediates interaction with TPR repeat-containing proteins. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the heat shock protein 90 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
