Swapping Nucleotides, Tuning Hsp70

نویسنده

  • Douglas M. Cyr
چکیده

Molecular chaperones such as heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) are crucial for protein folding. Crystal structures of Hsp70 in a complex with the nucleotide exchange factor (NEF) Hsp110 reported in this issue of Cell (Polier et al., 2008) and in Molecular Cell (Schuermann et al., 2008) provide new insights into how NEF action specifies Hsp70 cellular function.

Influence of dietary nucleotides on growth performance and stress resistance in Kutum (Rutilus kutum Kamenskii, 1901)

A feeding trial has been conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary nucleotide (NT) on growth performance and stress resistance of fry kutum (Rutilus kutum Kamenskii, 1901). A basal diet supplemented with 0 (control), 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7 g NT kg-1 have been formulated for four experimental diets. After 8 weeks of feeding trial, growth parameters were evaluated and then fish has exposed to osmoti...

Alternations of heat shock proteins (hsp70) gene expression in liver and gill of Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus Borodin, 1987) exposed to cadmium chloride

Induction of heat shock proteins (hsps) is considered as an important protective, ecophysiologically adaptive, and genetically conserved response to environmental stress in all organisms. The effects of exposure to sublethal doses of CdCl2 (0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 LC50) during 14 days on mRNA-hsp70 expression in liver and gillwere investigated in juveniles of Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus). Fi...

Expression of Recombinant Heat-Shock Protein 70 of MCAN/IR/96/LON-49, a Tool for Diagnosis and Future Vaccine Research

Background: Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is present in all organisms studied so far, and is a major immunogen in infections caused by pathogens including Leishmania spp. Objective: The aim of this study was to clone and express HSP70 from L. infantum strain MCAN/IR/96/LON-49 and evaluate antibody response against HSP70 in visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Methods: The L. infantum HSP70 gene segment...

Nucleotides Flanking the Start Codon in hsp70 mRNAs with Very Short 5’-UTRs Greatly Affect Gene Expression in Haloarchaea

Leaderless translation is prevalent in haloarchaea, with many of these leaderless transcripts possessing short 5'-untranslated regions (UTRs) less than 10 nucleotides. Whereas, little is known about the function of this very short 5'-UTR. Our previous studies determined that just four nucleotides preceded the start codon of hsp70 mRNA in Natrinema sp. J7, with residues -3A and +4G, relative to ...
