HSPB3

Heat shock protein beta-3 (HspB3) also known as heat shock 27kDa protein 3 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPB3 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
This gene encodes a muscle-specific small is_associated_with::heat shock protein.

Clinical significance
A is_associated_with::mutation in this gene is the cause of autosomal dominant distal hereditary is_associated_with::motor neuropathy type 2C.
