3 unusual facts about BAG domain


BAG domain

BAG-family proteins contain a single BAG domain, except for human BAG-5 which has four BAG repeats.

BAG2

All the BAG proteins have an approximately 45-amino acid BAG domain near the C terminus but differ markedly in their N-terminal regions.

BAG5

This protein contains a BAG domain near the C-terminus, which could bind and inhibit the chaperone activity of Hsc70/Hsp70.
