Symbol: Hsp23 Name: Heat shock protein 23 Entrez gene ID: 39077 Ensembl gene ID: FBgn0001224 Species: Fly (Taxid: 7227) Functional description: Heat shock protein 23; Heat shock protein 23 [Source:FlyBase gene name;Acc:FBgn0001224] [Ensembl]; The gene Heat shock protein 23 is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\Hsp23 (CG4463, FBgn0001224). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: response to hypoxia. 26 alleles are reported. No phenotypic data is available. It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Alpha crystallin/Heat shock protein; HSP20-like chaperone; Heat shock protein Hsp20. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of extremely high expression to a trough of moderate expression. Peak expression observed during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period. [FlyBase] Observation: Overexpression of Hsp23 increases mean lifespan by more than 30% and increases the premortality phase [14734639].
