Description

Predicted to enable adenyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity and chaperone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within heart contraction; locomotory behavior; and skeletal muscle tissue development. Located in Z disc. Is expressed in fast muscle cell; heart; muscle; and slow muscle cell. Used to study dilated cardiomyopathy and muscular dystrophy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dilated cardiomyopathy 1HH and myofibrillar myopathy 6. Orthologous to human BAG3 (BAG cochaperone 3).
