Gene Description

HSPA8 (also known as HSC70 or HSP73) is a constitutively expressed member of the HSP70 family of molecular chaperones. It functions as an ATP-dependent foldase chaperone that uses nucleotide-driven conformational changes to bind and release unfolded or misfolded substrate proteins, promoting their correct folding. HSPA8 plays central roles in protein quality control, chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) where it recognizes KFERQ motifs on substrate proteins for lysosomal degradation, clathrin coat disassembly, ER-associated degradation (ERAD), protein disaggregation, and as a component of the spliceosomal PRP19-CDC5L complex. Unlike the stress-inducible HSPA1A, HSPA8 is constitutively expressed and is the primary HSP70 family member involved in housekeeping chaperone functions.

GO:0007165 signal transduction
IEA
GO_REF:0000108
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: Signal transduction is overly broad for HSPA8. While HSPA8 modulates some signaling pathways (e.g., HSF1 regulation, NLRP3 inflammasome), its primary role is as a chaperone, not a signaling molecule.
Reason: HSPA8 is a molecular chaperone, not a signaling protein. The IEA annotation to signal transduction is too broad and does not capture the specific mechanistic role of HSPA8.
GO:0000166 nucleotide binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000043
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 binds ATP and ADP through its nucleotide-binding domain (NBD), which drives the chaperone conformational cycle.
Reason: Nucleotide binding is a core biochemical property of HSPA8, required for its chaperone function. While more general than ATP binding (GO:0005524), it is accurate.
GO:0001664 G protein-coupled receptor binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: This IEA annotation may reflect reported HSPA8 interactions with GPCR-context clients or receptor complexes, but the cited CXCR4/LPS source is not available in the local publication cache. The separately reviewed PMID:12150907 Pael-R/GPR37 annotation provides a better-supported GPCR-client context.
Reason: GPCR binding is not a core HSPA8 function. The accessible Pael-R/GPR37 evidence supports a chaperone-client quality-control interaction rather than a general GPCR-binding role, so this IEA term overstates the biological meaning of the interaction.
GO:0005524 ATP binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: ATP binding is a core biochemical activity of HSPA8, required for its chaperone cycle. Crystallographic structures confirm the ATP-binding pocket in the NBD.
Reason: ATP binding is essential for HSPA8 function, confirmed by crystal structures (PDB entries) and biochemical assays.
GO:0005681 spliceosomal complex
IEA
GO_REF:0000043
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 is a component of the PRP19-CDC5L spliceosomal complex, confirmed by IDA (PMID:20176811).
Reason: Spliceosomal complex membership is supported by direct experimental evidence (PMID:20176811) showing HSPA8 co-purifies with PRP19-CDC5L.
GO:0005730 nucleolus
IEA
GO_REF:0000044
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Nucleolar localization of HSPA8 from IEA mapping. While HSPA8 is found in the nucleus, nucleolar localization is plausible given HSPA8's role as a broadly distributed chaperone, but not specifically validated as a core localization.
Reason: IEA-derived annotation. HSPA8 is found in the nucleus but nucleolar localization is not a primary site of function.
GO:0005737 cytoplasm
IEA
GO_REF:0000044
ACCEPT
Summary: Cytoplasmic localization of HSPA8 is well-established and redundant with the IBA annotation.
Reason: Correct annotation, consistent with IBA and experimental evidence.

IEA
GO_REF:0000044
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 associates with the lysosomal membrane during CMA, where it delivers KFERQ-motif substrates to LAMP2A for translocation (PMID:11559757).
Reason: Lysosomal membrane localization is a core feature of HSPA8's role in CMA, supported by experimental evidence.
GO:0005886 plasma membrane
IEA
GO_REF:0000044
ACCEPT
Summary: Plasma membrane localization of HSPA8 is supported by IBA and experimental evidence (PMID:11276205, PMID:17785435).
Reason: Consistent with IBA annotation and experimental data showing HSPA8 at cell surface.

GO:0016787 hydrolase activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000043
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 has hydrolase activity (ATP hydrolysis, EC 3.6.4.10). This is a parent term of the more specific GO:0016887 (ATP hydrolysis activity).
Reason: Accurate but general; more specific ATP hydrolysis activity terms also annotated. Acceptable as a broader IEA annotation.
GO:0016887 ATP hydrolysis activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
ACCEPT
Summary: ATP hydrolysis activity is a core enzymatic function of HSPA8, redundant with the IBA annotation.

Reason: Consistent with IBA annotation and extensive experimental evidence for HSP interactions.
GO:0031625 ubiquitin protein ligase binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 binds the E3 ubiquitin ligase CHIP/STUB1, which ubiquitinates Hsc70-bound misfolded substrates to target them for proteasomal degradation (PMID:12150907, PMID:16207813).
Reason: Well-established interaction between HSPA8 and CHIP/STUB1 E3 ligase that is central to the chaperone-ubiquitin-proteasome triage pathway.
GO:0031647 regulation of protein stability
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT

GO:0033554 cellular response to stress
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 responds to cellular stress by increasing chaperone activity, though unlike HSPA1A it is constitutively expressed rather than stress-induced.
Reason: HSPA8 is a constitutive chaperone that participates in stress responses, including regulating HSF1 during heat shock attenuation (PMID:9499401).
GO:0039531 regulation of cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptor signaling pathway
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: HSPA8 modulates pattern recognition receptor signaling, including NLRP3 inflammasome regulation via CMA-mediated degradation of NLRP3 (PMID:36586411).
Reason: A non-core but documented consequence of HSPA8's CMA activity on NLRP3 turnover.
GO:0042026 protein refolding
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: Protein refolding is a core function of HSPA8, consistent with IBA and IDA evidence.
Reason: Redundant with IBA annotation; correct.
GO:0042470 melanosome
IEA
GO_REF:0000044
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: HSPA8 was identified in melanosomes by proteomic analysis (PMID:17081065). This likely reflects its role as an abundant chaperone found in many compartments.
Reason: IEA-based from subcellular location mapping. HSPA8 is an abundant protein found in many subcellular fractions; melanosome localization is not a core function.
GO:0043254 regulation of protein-containing complex assembly
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 regulates protein complex assembly, including clathrin lattice disassembly and CMA translocation complex assembly/disassembly.
Reason: Consistent with HSPA8's established roles in clathrin uncoating and CMA complex regulation.
GO:0046034 ATP metabolic process
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: HSPA8 hydrolyzes ATP as part of its chaperone cycle, but ATP metabolism as a broad biological process overstates HSPA8 as an ATP-metabolism gene. The relevant activity is already captured by ATP hydrolysis activity and ATP-dependent chaperone molecular-function annotations.
Reason: This broad BP parent is less informative than the molecular-function terms that describe HSPA8's ATPase-driven chaperone cycle.
GO:0051082 unfolded protein binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
MODIFY
Summary: GO:0051082 (unfolded protein binding) is now formally obsolete. HSPA8 functions as a protein folding chaperone, binding unfolded/misfolded substrates via its SBD to assist their correct folding through ATP-driven conformational cycles.
Reason: GO:0051082 is now formally obsolete as part of the unfolded protein binding obsoletion project. The correct replacement for HSPA8 is GO:0044183 (protein folding chaperone) since HSPA8/HSC70 binds client polypeptides to assist their folding, not merely to bind unfolded proteins. More specifically, GO:0140662 (ATP-dependent protein folding chaperone) is the most appropriate term.
Proposed replacements: protein folding chaperone
GO:0051129 negative regulation of cellular component organization
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: HSPA8 negatively regulates cellular component organization, e.g. through clathrin coat disassembly and prevention of protein aggregation.
Reason: A broad annotation capturing indirect consequences of HSPA8's chaperone activities.
GO:0055131 C3HC4-type RING finger domain binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 binds C3HC4-type RING finger domains, consistent with its interaction with CHIP/STUB1 E3 ligase and RNF207 (PMID:25281747).
Reason: Reflects the functional interaction between HSPA8 and RING-type E3 ligases.
GO:0071383 cellular response to steroid hormone stimulus
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: HSPA8 participates in steroid hormone receptor chaperoning as part of the HSP70/HSP90 chaperone machine that folds and activates steroid hormone receptors.
Reason: A non-core function reflecting HSPA8's role in the HSP90 chaperone cycle for steroid hormone receptors.
GO:0072318 clathrin coat disassembly
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: Clathrin coat disassembly is a core function of HSPA8, consistent with IBA and IDA evidence (PMID:8524399).
Reason: Redundant with IBA annotation; correct.
GO:0140545 ATP-dependent protein disaggregase activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 has ATP-dependent protein disaggregase activity, working with HSP110 (HSPH1) to disaggregate protein aggregates (PMID:22990239, PMID:23921388).
Reason: Supported by direct experimental evidence showing HSPA8+HSP110 disaggregase activity.
GO:1902903 regulation of supramolecular fiber organization
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: HSPA8 modulates supramolecular fiber organization, possibly through prevention of amyloid/aggregate formation (PMID:23921388).
Reason: A non-core consequence of HSPA8's disaggregase and anti-aggregation chaperone activities.
GO:1904813 ficolin-1-rich granule lumen
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: HSPA8 is found in ficolin-1-rich granule lumen in neutrophils, likely reflecting its presence as an abundant protein in secretory granules.
Reason: IEA annotation reflecting proteomic detection in a specialized granule compartment; not a core localization.
GO:1990904 ribonucleoprotein complex
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: HSPA8 is found in ribonucleoprotein complexes, including IMP1 mRNP granules (PMID:17289661) and the PRP19-CDC5L spliceosomal complex.

MODIFY
Summary: GO:0051082 (unfolded protein binding) is now formally obsolete. HSPA8 functions as a protein folding chaperone, binding unfolded/misfolded substrates via its SBD to assist their correct folding through ATP-driven conformational cycles.
Reason: GO:0051082 is now formally obsolete as part of the unfolded protein binding obsoletion project. The correct replacement for HSPA8 is GO:0044183 (protein folding chaperone) since HSPA8/HSC70 binds client polypeptides to assist their folding, not merely to bind unfolded proteins. More specifically, GO:0140662 (ATP-dependent protein folding chaperone) is the most appropriate term.

Core Functions

HSPA8/HSC70 is a constitutive ATP-dependent molecular chaperone that binds unfolded/misfolded client polypeptides through its substrate-binding domain (SBD) and assists their folding through iterative cycles of ATP binding, hydrolysis, and ADP release in the nucleotide-binding domain (NBD). This is the primary molecular function of HSPA8.

Cellular Locations:
Supporting Evidence:
  • file:human/HSPA8/HSPA8-deep-research-falcon.md
    HSPA8 encodes the constitutive cytosolic Hsp70 isoform Hsc70, which uses ATP-dependent cycles to bind and release client polypeptides, preventing aggregation, aiding folding, remodeling complexes, and routing damaged proteins for clearance.

ATP hydrolysis (EC 3.6.4.10) is the core enzymatic activity driving HSPA8's chaperone cycle. J-domain co-chaperones (DNAJ family) stimulate this ATPase activity over 1000-fold, coupling substrate recognition to high-affinity client binding.

ATP hydrolysis activity
Cellular Locations:
Supporting Evidence:
  • file:human/HSPA8/HSPA8-deep-research-falcon.md
    The nucleotide-binding domain binds and hydrolyzes ATP, and J-domain proteins can stimulate Hsp70/Hsc70 ATPase activity by more than 1,000-fold.

HSPA8 is the essential substrate-recognition chaperone in CMA, recognizing KFERQ-like pentapeptide motifs on cytosolic proteins and delivering them to LAMP2A at the lysosomal membrane for translocation and degradation. This adaptor activity bridges CMA substrates to the lysosomal translocation machinery.

Supporting Evidence:
  • file:human/HSPA8/HSPA8-deep-research-falcon.md
    Hsc70/HspA8 is the substrate-recognition chaperone in chaperone-mediated autophagy, selecting proteins with KFERQ-like motifs and delivering them to lysosomal LAMP2A for translocation and degradation.

HSPA8 mediates ATP-dependent disassembly of clathrin lattices on coated vesicles, working with auxilin (DNAJC6) or GAK as J-domain co-chaperones. The chaperone function is applied to clathrin triskelions as substrates.

    Hsc70 is a clathrin-binding/uncoating ATPase in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, with clathrin listed among Hsp70 substrates and auxilin/GAK acting as J-domain co-chaperones.

HSPA8 collaborates with HSP110/HSPH1 and DNAJ co-chaperones to form a mammalian disaggregase complex that solubilizes protein aggregates including amyloid fibrils. This represents a core proteostasis function.

Supporting Evidence:
  • file:human/HSPA8/HSPA8-deep-research-falcon.md
    HspA8 functions in proteostasis pathways including folding, refolding, disaggregation with partners, chaperone-mediated autophagy, and other selective autophagy routes.
