Scientific Background: Chaperonin 10 (Hsp10; GroES; Cpn10) is part of a family of small heart shock proteins with an approximate molecular mass of 10 kDa (HSP10s). Cpn10 acts as a co-chaperone and interacts with the HSP60 family to promote proper folding of polypeptides. Cpn10 and Cpn60 both exhibit seven-fold axis of symmetry and function as a team in the protein folding and assembly process (1). It forms a heptameric, dome-shaped ring that acts as a "lid" on Cpn60, isolating unfolded proteins to prevent aggregation, particularly in the mitochondrial matrix, chloroplasts (as a 20 kDa protein) and bacteria. It works in conjunction with the 60 kDa chaperonin (Cpn60/GroEL) in an Mg2+-ATP-dependent manner. Cpn10 has been located in human platelets, but is also present in human maternal serum (2, 3). Human Cpn10 is identical with early pregnancy factor, which is involved in control over cell growth and development. This identification indicates that Cpn10 may act like a hormone in stressful situations such as pregnancy (4). This description may include information annotated by UniProt and/or Google AI.
