Function of your protein

The protein Spy can facilitate protein folding by allowing it to prevent clustering. That is done by grabbing the proteins as they start to misfold right before they are able to stick to other proteins to make big cluster. The protein also needs to bind very quickly.

Biological relevance and broader implications

There are diseases out there wondering if we can customize chaperons. One in particular is Alzheimer's because people with this disease could possibly have differences in their chaperons which could cause you to be more prone to that disease. You can be more prone because of the beta amyloid plaques being formed. By studying this protein and doing different experiments with it was helping to better understand how chaperons work.
