SACS
Co-chaperone which acts as a regulator of the Hsp70 chaperone machinery and may be involved in the processing of other ataxia-linked proteins. Highly expressed in the central nervous system. Also found in skeletal muscle and at low levels in pancreas. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
