Reactive cysteines of the 90-kDa heat shock protein, Hsp90.
The 90-kDa heat shock protein (Hsp90) is the most abundant molecular chaperone of the eukaryotic cytoplasm. Its cysteine groups participate in the interactions of Hsp90 with the heme-regulated eIF-2alpha kinase and molybdate, a stabilizer of Hsp90-protein complexes. In our present studies we investigated the reactivity of the sulfhydryl groups of Hsp90. Our data indicate that Hsp90 as well as t...
متن کاملHeat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90) Expression and Breast Cancer
Hsp90 is an abundant protein in mammalian cells. It forms several discrete complexes, each containing distinct groups of co-chaperones that assist protein folding and refolding during stress, protein transport and degradation. It interacts with a variety of proteins that play key roles in breast neoplasia including estrogen receptors, tumor suppressor p53 protein, angiogenesis transcription fac...
متن کاملCharged linker sequence modulates eukaryotic heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) chaperone activity.
Hsp90 is an essential and highly conserved modular molecular chaperone whose N and middle domains are separated by a disordered region termed the charged linker. Although its importance has been previously disregarded, because a minimal linker length is sufficient for Hsp90 activity, the evolutionary persistence of extensive charged linkers of divergent sequence in Hsp90 proteins of most eukary...
متن کاملHeat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90) and Her2 in Adenocarcinomas of the Esophagus
Her2 overexpression and amplification can be found in a significant subset of esophageal adenocarcinomas. The activity of Her2 has been shown to be modulated by molecular chaperones such as HSP90. We analyzed expression/amplification data for HSP90 and Her2 on 127 primary resected esophageal adenocarcinomas in order to evaluate a possible relationship between these two molecules. HSP90 expressi...
متن کاملHeat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90) as a molecular target for therapy of gastrointestinal cancer.
Anticancer drug development strategies critically involve the identification of novel molecular targets which are crucial for tumorigenesis and metastasis. In this context, the molecular chaperone heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90) has gained interest as a promising anticancer drug target, due to its importance in maintaining the stability, integrity, conformation and function of key oncogenic prote...
