Full name: DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member C6

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: DJC6; PARK19

Summary: DNAJC6 belongs to the evolutionarily conserved DNAJ/HSP40 family of proteins, which regulate molecular chaperone activity by stimulating ATPase activity. DNAJ proteins may have up to 3 distinct domains: a conserved 70-amino acid J domain, usually at the N terminus, a glycine/phenylalanine (G/F)-rich region, and a cysteine-rich domain containing 4 motifs resembling a zinc finger domain (Ohtsuka and Hata, 2000 [PubMed 11147971]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Expression: Biased expression in brain (RPKM 55.4), adrenal (RPKM 6.4) and 3 other tissues

Gene size: 151123bp

Exon count: 21
