    Background
    GRP94, also known as gp96 or HSP90B1, functions as the endoplasmic reticulum-resident paralog of cytosolic HSP90, a glycoprotein chaperone critical for folding, maturation, and quality control of secretory and membrane proteins, including immunoglobulins, integrins, toll-like receptors, and insulin-like growth factors. Featuring four structural domains, an N-terminal nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) with ATPase activity, a middle domain (MD) for client recognition, a C-terminal domain (CTD) mediating dimerization via a conserved MEEVD motif, and a unique ER-targeting pre-neck domain (pre-N), GRP94 adopts an open "V" conformation in ADP-bound states for high client affinity and transitions to a closed twisted dimer upon ATP binding that aligns catalytic residues (Asp56, Glu121) for hydrolysis, facilitating iterative client remodeling cycles often in collaboration with BiP via direct interactions that enhance folding efficiency under ER stress. This ATP-driven mechanism ensures glycoprotein maturation through N-linked glycan coordination and calcium buffering via charged residues in its helical lid segment, activates innate immunity by chaperoning TLR clients to trigger NF-κB and IRF3 pathways for cytokine production, and supports antigen cross-presentation by dendritic cells, with overexpression in cancers stabilizing oncogenic clients like mutant EGFR/HER2 to promote tumor growth, metastasis, and therapy resistance, while deficiency causes embryonic lethality or neurodegeneration akin to Alzheimer's via tau aggregation.
