Abstract
Mammalian small Hsps (sHsps) comprise 7 members found so far, αA- and αB-crystallin, Hsp25/27, Hsp20 (Kato et al. 1994a), MKBP (Suzuki et al. 1998), HspL27 (Lam et al. 1996), and cvHSP (Krief et al. 1999), all of which contain the α-crystallin domain in the carboxy-terminal half of the molecule.
