Heat Shock Cognate 70 (HSC70) is a constitutively expressed molecular chaperone, functions of which regulate the structure, subcellular localization, and turnover of cell proteins. It is also a component of the centrosome facilitating rearrangements during mitotic/meiotic spindle formation and cytoplasmic microtubule organization. We localized HSC70 to 11q23.3, a region deleted in 40% of sporadic breast and other cancers. Sequencing demonstrated mutation in the NH2-terminal ATPase domain of HSC70 in 2 of 15 sporadic breast carcinomas examined. In both cases, mutation was coincident with allelic imbalance, suggesting that HSC70 is a target of somatic mutation and deletion in a fraction of breast carcinomas.
