Function
Isoform 1:
Functions as extracellular chaperone that prevents aggregation of non native proteins (PubMed:11123922, PubMed:19535339).
Prevents stress-induced aggregation of blood plasma proteins (PubMed:11123922, PubMed:12176985, PubMed:17260971, PubMed:19996109).
Inhibits formation of amyloid fibrils by APP, APOC2, B2M, CALCA, CSN3, SNCA and aggregation-prone LYZ variants (in vitro) (PubMed:12047389, PubMed:17412999, PubMed:17407782).
Does not require ATP (PubMed:11123922).
Maintains partially unfolded proteins in a state appropriate for subsequent refolding by other chaperones, such as HSPA8/HSC70 (PubMed:11123922).
Does not refold proteins by itself (PubMed:11123922).
Binding to cell surface receptors triggers internalization of the chaperone-client complex and subsequent lysosomal or proteasomal degradation (PubMed:21505792).
Protects cells against apoptosis and against cytolysis by complement (PubMed:2780565).
Intracellular forms interact with ubiquitin and SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes and promote the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins (PubMed:20068069).
Promotes proteasomal degradation of COMMD1 and IKBKB (PubMed:20068069).
Modulates NF-kappa-B transcriptional activity (PubMed:12882985).
A mitochondrial form suppresses BAX-dependent release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm and inhibit apoptosis (PubMed:16113678, PubMed:17689225).
Plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation (PubMed:19137541).
An intracellular form suppresses stress-induced apoptosis by stabilizing mitochondrial membrane integrity through interaction with HSPA5 (PubMed:22689054).
Secreted form does not affect caspase or BAX-mediated intrinsic apoptosis and TNF-induced NF-kappa-B-activity (PubMed:24073260).
Secreted form act as an important modulator during neuronal differentiation through interaction with STMN3 (By similarity).
Plays a role in the clearance of immune complexes that arise during cell injury (By similarity).
Isoform 6:
Does not affect caspase or BAX-mediated intrinsic apoptosis and TNF-induced NF-kappa-B-activity.
Isoform 4:
Does not affect caspase or BAX-mediated intrinsic apoptosis and TNF-induced NF-kappa-B-activity (PubMed:24073260).
Promotes cell death through interaction with BCL2L1 that releases and activates BAX (PubMed:21567405).

Cellular Location
Isoform 1: Secreted. Can retrotranslocate from the secretory compartments to the cytosol upon cellular stress.
Isoform 4: Cytoplasm. Keeps cytoplasmic localization in stressed and unstressed cell.
Isoform 6: Cytoplasm. Keeps cytoplasmic localization in stressed and unstressed cell.
Mitochondrion membrane; Mitochondrion; Nucleus; Cytoplasm; Cytosol; Microsome; Endoplasmic reticulum; Perinuclear region; Chromaffin granule. Secreted isoforms can retrotranslocate from the secretory compartments to the cytosol upon cellular stress (PubMed:17451556). Detected in perinuclear foci that may be aggresomes containing misfolded, ubiquitinated proteins (PubMed:20068069). Detected at the mitochondrion membrane upon induction of apoptosis (PubMed:17689225). Under ER stress, a immaturely glycosylated pre-secreted form retrotranslocates from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi network to the cytoplasm to localize in the mitochondria through HSPA5 interaction (PubMed:22689054). ER stress reduces secretion (PubMed:22689054). Under the stress, minor amounts of non-secreted forms accumulate in cytoplasm (PubMed:24073260, PubMed:22689054, PubMed:17451556). Non-secreted forms emerge mainly from failed translocation, alternative splicing or non-canonical initiation start codon (PubMed:24073260, PubMed:12551933).
PTM
Proteolytically cleaved on its way through the secretory system, probably within the Golgi lumen (PubMed:2387851). Proteolytic cleavage is not necessary for its chaperone activity (PubMed:25402950). All non-secreted forms are not proteolytically cleaved (PubMed:24073260). Chaperone activity of uncleaved forms is dependent on a non-reducing envoronment (PubMed:25402950).
Polyubiquitinated, leading to proteasomal degradation (PubMed:17451556, PubMed:19137541). Under cellular stress, the intracellular level of cleaved form is reduced due to proteasomal degradation (PubMed:17451556).
Extensively glycosylated with sulfated N-linked carbohydrates (PubMed:17260971, PubMed:2387851). About 30% of the protein mass is comprised of complex N-linked carbohydrate (PubMed:2387851). Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induces changes in glycosylation status and increases level of hypoglycosylated forms (PubMed:22689054). Core carbohydrates are essential for chaperone activity (PubMed:25402950). Non-secreted forms are hypoglycosylated or unglycosylated (PubMed:24073260).
