The presence of an alpha-crystallin domain documents the evolutionary relatedness of the ubiquitous family of small heat shock proteins. Sequence and three-dimensional structure provide no evidence for the presence of such a domain in HSPC034, recently proposed as the 11th member of the human HSPB family. Also, phylogenetic analyses detect no relationship between HSPC034 and the human HSPB1-10 sequences. Arguments are provided as to why inclusion in the HSPB family of proteins like HSPC034, whic ...[more]
