SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm
	intracellular,nucleus

basic FUNCTION	assisting in the correct folding of other proteins
	transfering target proteins to cytosolic chaperonin (C-CPN)
	promoting folding in an environment in which there are many competing pathways for nonnative proteins
	playing a role during G1-S phase transition phase of the cell cycle
	promoting folding of nascent polypeptide chain in an environment in which there are many competing pathways for nonnative proteins

CELLULAR PROCESS	nucleotide, transcription
	protein, editing
	protein, post translation, folding
