Definition 1
A family of structurally related proteins that play a role in cell signalling, protein folding and cellular stress responses. The members of this family are approximately 90 kDa. (NCI Thesaurus)
Definition 2
A class of MOLECULAR CHAPERONES whose members act in the mechanism of signal transduction by steroid receptors. (NLM, Medical Subject Headings)
