FAMILY
  • TCP-1 chaperonin family
  • TF55/TCP-1 family
  • CATEGORY chaperone/stress
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
    basic FUNCTION
  • assembled into a TCP1-ring complex (TRIC) and mediating ATP-dependent monomeric protein folding
  • cytosolic molecular chaperone implicated especially in the biogenesis of cytoskeletal proteins by promoting the correct folding of the major ubiquitous cytoskeletal components, tubulin and actin (Roobol 1995)
  • may be playing a role, in the folding of actin and tubulin
  • required for maturation of sphingosine kinase 1 (Zebol 2009)
  • CCT complex is responsible for the folding of a number of proteins including actin and tubulin (Kabir 2009)
