Encodes a a high molecular weight member of the FK506 binding protein (FKBP) family. It has three FKBP12-like domains, tetratricopeptide repeats, and a putative calmodulin binding domain. Modulates thermotolerance by interacting with HSP90.1 and affecting the accumulation of HsfA2-regulated sHSPs. Belongs to one of the 36 carboxylate clamp (CC)-tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) proteins (Prasad 2010, Pubmed ID: 20856808) with potential to interact with Hsp90/Hsp70 as co-chaperones.
