| Function | Co-chaperone and adapter protein that connects different classes of molecular chaperones including heat shock proteins 70 (HSP70s), e.g. HSPA1A/HSP70 or HSPA8/HSC70, and small heat shock proteins (sHSPs), e.g. HSPB8 (PubMed:27884606, PubMed:30559338). Acts as a nucleotide-exchange factor (NEF) promoting the release of ADP from HSP70s, thereby triggering client protein release (PubMed:27884606, PubMed:30559338). Nucleotide release is mediated via BAG3 binding to the nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) of HSP70s, whereas client release is mediated via binding to the substrate-binding domain (SBD) (PubMed:27474739, PubMed:9873016). Has anti-apoptotic activity (PubMed:10597216). Plays a role in the HSF1 nucleocytoplasmic transport (PubMed:26159920). |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Colocalizes with HSF1 to the nucleus upon heat stress (PubMed:26159920) |

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
