SGTA

Small glutamine-rich tetratricopeptide repeat-containing protein alpha is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the SGTA is_associated_with::gene. SGTA is_associated_with::orthologs have also been identified in several is_associated_with::mammals for which complete genome data are available.

Function
This gene encodes a protein which is capable of interacting with the major nonstructural protein of parvovirus H-1 and 70-kDa heat shock cognate protein; however, its function is not known. Since this transcript is expressed ubiquitously in various tissues, this protein may serve a housekeeping function.

Interactions
SGTA has been shown to interact with is_associated_with::Growth hormone receptor.
