Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.
The protein HSPB2 also known as heat shock protein beta-2 functions as a small heat shock protein. It has a molecular mass of approximately 23 kDa. HSPB2 is expressed in various tissues but shows high expression in cardiac and skeletal muscles. This protein plays a role in the maintenance of cellular protein homeostasis. It binds to unfolded proteins preventing aggregation and assisting in the proper folding of client proteins under stress conditions.
HSPB2 contributes to the maintenance of muscle function. It forms complexes with other small heat shock proteins such as HSPB3 and helps in stabilizing the cytoskeletal structures during cellular stress. The protein also participates in the chaperone-assisted selective autophagy a process for the degradation of damaged proteins and organelles thereby supporting cellular integrity.
HSPB2 interacts significantly with the MAPK signaling pathway and is involved in stress response regulation. It associates with proteins such as HSP27 and potentially impacts pathways tied to cell survival and apoptosis. This interaction suggests a functional role in signaling processes that mediate cellular adaptation to stress often impacting downstream cellular functions such as differentiation and proliferation.
HSPB2 shows a connection to cardiomyopathies and muscular dystrophies where its expression or function might be altered. In cardiac tissue malfunction of HSPB2 leads to improper handling of stress contributing to heart conditions. It connects to proteins such as alpha-B crystallin another small heat shock protein which together protect muscle cells from damage. Understanding the role of HSPB2 in these disorders may offer insights into potential therapeutic approaches.
