Hsp90 is a ubiquitous molecular chaperone responsible for the governing of protein folding and regulation of many eukaryotic signaling pathways in the cell (Ali et al., 2006).

Hsp90 is a ubiquitous molecular chaperone responsible for the governing of protein folding and regulation of many eukaryotic signaling pathways in the cell (Ali et al., 2006). It is involved in the activation of many regulatory and signaling client proteins under normal conditions in addition to the refolding of misfolding of a number of proteins during stress.
