CHIP (carboxyl terminus of hsc70-interacting protein) is a cytoplasmic protein has a molar mass of 35kDa. It is expressed predominantly in striated muscle in vivo and brain. It contains a U-box domain that is a modified RING finder domain for recruiting E2 ubiquitinating enzymes, a coiled-coil region, and three TPR (tetratricopeptide) domains that interact with the heat-shock proteins HSP70 and HSP90. The gene encoding this protein is referred to as STUB1 (STIP1 homology and U-box containing protein 1) and is mapped to human chromosome 16p13.3.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide V(218)DEKRKKRDIPDYLC(232) corresponding to amino acid residues 218-232 from human CHIP.
Biochem/physiol Actions
CHIP (carboxyl terminus of hsc70-interacting protein) is an interacting partner of the constitutive form of hsc70 and the stress inducible form of hsp70. It participates in the ubiquitin-proteasome system. It functions as a E3 ubiquitin-ligase up on binding to hsc70 and hsp90 and ubiquitylates unfolded protein. Mutations in this gene have been linked to spinocerebellar ataxia.
Physical form
Provided as 100 μg of affinity purified IgG (1 mg/mL) in phosphate buffered saline containing 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin and 0.05% sodium azide.

Autosomal recessive ataxias affect about 1 person in 20,000. Friedreich ataxia accounts for one-third of the cases in Caucasians; the others are due to a growing list of very rare molecular defects, including mild forms of metabolic diseases. In nearly
Invasive ductal carcinomas (IDCs) and invasive lobular carcinomas (ILCs) are the two major pathological types of breast cancer. Epidemiological and histoclinical data suggest biological differences, but little is known about the molecular alterations involved in ILCs. We undertook a comparative
The ubiquitin-proteasome system catalyses the immediate destruction of misfolded or impaired proteins generated in cells, but how this proteolytic machinery recognizes abnormality of cellular proteins for selective elimination remains elusive. Here, we report that the C-terminus of Hsc70-interacting protein (CHIP)

The chaperone function of the mammalian 70-kDa heat shock proteins Hsc70 and Hsp70 is modulated by physical interactions with four previously identified chaperone cofactors: Hsp40, BAG-1, the Hsc70-interacting protein Hip, and the Hsc70-Hsp90-organizing protein Hop. Hip and Hop interact with
