Human heat-shock protein-binding proteins (HspBP-1 and HspBP-2) are disclosed
with the polynucleotides which identify and encode them. Genetically engineered
expression vectors and host cells comprising nucleic acid sequences encoding heat-shock
protein-binding proteins (HspBP) are also disclosed, as well as methods for producing
HspBP polypeptides and for detecting polynucleotide sequences that encode HspBP polypeptides.
