recombinant clpB1 protein, derived from Synechocystis PCC 6803 strain slr1641 sequence, protein has an internal translation site. The nomenclature used is reverse of what is mentioned in the cyanobase.
ClpB protein is essential for resistance to high temperature stress. It functions to dissolve inactive protein aggregates that accumulate at high temperatures. Giese and Vierling (2002) Changes in oligomerization are essential for the chaperone activity
