General description of the gene and the encoded protein(s) using information from HGNC and Ensembl, as well as predictions made by the Human Protein Atlas project.
Gene namei
Official gene symbol, which is typically a short form of the gene name, according to HGNC.
Assigned HPA protein class(es) for the encoded protein(s).

Predicted locationi
All transcripts of all genes have been analyzed regarding the location(s) of corresponding protein based on prediction methods for signal peptides and transmembrane regions.
Genes with at least one transcript predicted to encode a secreted protein, according to prediction methods or to UniProt location data, have been further annotated and classified with the aim to determine if the corresponding protein(s) are secreted or actually retained in intracellular locations or membrane-attached.
Remaining genes, with no transcript predicted to encode a secreted protein, will be assigned the prediction-based location(s).
The annotated location overrules the predicted location, so that a gene encoding a predicted secreted protein that has been annotated as intracellular will have intracellular as the final location.
Gene information from Ensembl and Entrez, as well as links to available gene identifiers are displayed here. Information was retrieved from Ensembl if not indicated otherwise.

May act as a protein phosphatase and/or a lipid phosphatase. Co-chaperone that recruits HSPA8/HSC70 to clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) and promotes the ATP-dependent dissociation of clathrin from CCVs and participates in clathrin-mediated endocytosis of synaptic vesicles and their recycling and also in intracellular trafficking 1. Firstly, binds tightly to the clathrin cages, at a ratio of one DNAJC6 per clathrin triskelion. The HSPA8:ATP complex then binds to the clathrin-auxilin cage, initially at a ratio of one HSPA8 per triskelion leading to ATP hydrolysis stimulation and causing a conformational change in the HSPA8. This cycle is repeated three times to drive to a complex containing the clathrin-auxilin cage associated to three HSPA8:ADP complex. The ATP hydrolysis of the third HSPA8:ATP complex leads to a concerted dismantling of the cage into component triskelia. Then, dissociates from the released triskelia and be recycled to initiate another cycle of HSPA8's recruitment. Also acts during the early steps of clathrin-coated vesicle (CCV) formation through its interaction with the GTP bound form of DNM1 (By similarity)....show less
Molecular function (UniProt)i
Keywords assigned by UniProt to proteins due to their particular molecular function.
The protein information section displays alternative protein-coding transcripts (splice variants) encoded by this gene according to the Ensembl database.
The Splice variant identifier links to the Ensembl website protein summary for the selected splice variant. The data in the Swissprot and TrEMBL columns links to corresponding pages in the UniProt database.
The protein classes assigned to this protein are shown if expanding the data in the protein class column. Parent protein classes are in bold font and subclasses are listed under the parent class.
The length of the protein (amino acid residues according to Ensembl), molecular mass (kDalton), predicted signal peptide and number of predicted transmembrane region(s) according to in-house majority decision methods based on sets of predictors are also reported.
