Production of a recombinant form of early pregnancy factor that can prolong allogeneic skin graft survival time in rats [PDF]
Early pregnancy factor (EPF), an extracellular chaperonin 10 homologue, has immunosuppressive and growth factor properties. In order to carry out more extensive studies on the in vivo characteristics of EPF, a recombinant form of the molecule has been ...

The chaperonin 60 protein SlCpn60α1 modulates photosynthesis and photorespiration in tomato [PDF]
Abstract Photosynthesis, an indispensable biological process of plants, produces organic substances for plant growth, during which photorespiration occurs to oxidize carbohydrates to achieve homeostasis. Although the molecular mechanism underlying photosynthesis and photorespiration has been widely explored, the crosstalk between the two

Complex Destabilization in the Mitochondrial Chaperonin Hsp60 Leads to Disease
Several neurological disorders have been linked to mutations in chaperonin genes and more specifically to the HSPD1 gene. In humans, HSPD1 encodes the mitochondrial Heat Shock Protein 60 (mtHsp60) chaperonin, which carries out essential protein folding ...

Potential marker proteins for ozone-induced yield reduction in rice
Three proteins - a 60-kDa chaperonin (CPN-60), chloroplastic ATP synthase, and enolase 1 - were evaluated as potential markers of ozone-induced yield responses in six rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars (‘Kirara 397’, ‘Koshihikari’, ‘Nipponbare’, ‘Takanari’,
