HSD17B1

HSD17B1 (hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 1, also EDH17B2, SDR28C1) is a human gene at 17q21.2 encoding 17β-HSD1, a 34.5-kDa homodimeric SDR enzyme that reduces estrone to estradiol using NADPH, inactivates androgens, and is a drug target in breast cancer and endometriosis.

HSF1

HSF1 (heat shock factor 1), master transcriptional regulator of the heat shock response, induces HSP chaperone genes via stress-triggered trimerization and HSE binding; elevated in cancer, degraded in Huntington disease.

Hsp100/Clp protein family

The Hsp100/Clp family is a group of ring-shaped AAA+ ATPase chaperones, including ClpA, ClpB, and Hsp104, that use ATP to unfold proteins or dissolve aggregates.

Hsp104

Hsp110 and related nucleotide-exchange factor families

The Hsp110/Grp170, HspBP1/Sil1, and BAG families are eukaryotic co-chaperone families that restart the Hsp70 cycle by driving ADP release, unlike bacteria, which have only GrpE.

Hsp70

Hsp70 (70 kDa heat shock protein, DnaK in bacteria) is a conserved ATP-driven molecular chaperone family that folds, translocates, and disaggregates proteins; discovered by Ritossa in Drosophila in 1962, with 13 human members including Hsp72, BiP, and mortalin.

Hsp90

Hsp90 is a family of about 90-kDa molecular chaperones that use ATP-driven conformational cycles to mature client proteins, including kinases, transcription factors, and E3 ubiquitin ligases.

Hsp90 buffering of genetic variation

Hsp90 buffering of genetic variation is the ability of the Hsp90 chaperone to hide the effects of genetic variants until stress or inhibition reveals them, making Hsp90 a capacitor of variation.

HSP90AA1

HSP90AA1 (Hsp86, HspC1) is the human chromosome 14q32.31 gene encoding Hsp90α, the stress-inducible cytosolic Hsp90 chaperone isoform, a homodimeric ATPase distinct from the essential constitutive paralog HSP90AB1.

HSP90B1

HSP90B1 (GRP94, gp96, endoplasmin) is the human gene at 12q23.3 encoding the ER-resident HSP90-family chaperone that folds Toll-like receptors, integrins, and IGF clients; its regulated glycosylation links to osteogenesis imperfecta and cancer prognosis.

HSPA1A

HSPA1A (HSP70-1, HSP72) is a human intronless gene at 6p21.33 in the MHC class III region encoding the major stress-inducible 70 kDa Hsp70 chaperone, regulated by HSF-1, NF-Y, NF-kB, and CREB.
