The 170 kDa glucose regulated stress protein is a large HSP70-, HSP110-like protein of the endoplasmic reticulum.

The existence of a family of unusually large and highly diverged hsp70-like proteins (the hsp110/SSE family) has recently been described. The 170 kDa glucose regulated stress protein (grp170) is a retained endoplasmic reticulum glycoprotein that may be involved in immunoglobulin folding and/or assembly. We describe here the cloning of the cDNA for grp170 and show that it, like hsp110, is a large and highly diverged hsp70-like polypeptide which shares specific features with hsp70 (the dnaK family) and the hsp110/SSE family, while also differing from both. Grp170 contains an ATP binding domain and binds ATP, it possesses a carboxyl terminal NDEL sequence, and its mRNA is anoxia inducible.[1]
