Heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 2

HSPA2 or Heat Shock Protein Family A (Hsp70) Member 2 is a protein-encoding gene.

Function
HSPA2 is a mitochondrial/energy metabolism genes.

ME/CFS
A study by Light et al. (2013) differences between gene expression in fatigued prostrate cancer patients and chronic fatigue syndrome patients reported: "'CFS patients showed higher P2RX7 and lower HSPA2 versus controls and PCF.'"
