Differential regulation of circulating levels of molecular chaperones in patients undergoing treatment for periodontal disease. [PDF]
Evidence is emerging that molecular chaperones, in addition to their intracellular protein folding actions, can act as intercellular signaling proteins with an ability to modulate leukocyte function. Recent evidence has also shown that these proteins can

An inventory of interactors of the human HSP60/HSP10 chaperonin in the mitochondrial matrix space [PDF]
The HSP60/HSP10 chaperonin assists folding of proteins in the mitochondrial matrix space by enclosing them in its central cavity. The chaperonin forms part of the mitochondrial protein quality control system.

Root exudate-induced alterations in Bacillus cereus cell wall contribute to root colonization and plant growth promotion. [PDF]
The outcome of an interaction between plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and plants may depend on the chemical composition of root exudates (REs). We report the colonization of tobacco, and not groundnut, roots by a non-rhizospheric Bacillus cereus ...

Expression of plant chaperonin-60 genes in Escherichia coli
We have examined the expression in Escherichia coli of genes encoding a plant chloroplast molecular chaperone, chaperonin-60. Purified plant chaperonin-60 is distinct in that it contains two polypeptides, p60cpn-60 alpha and p60cpn-60 beta, which have divergent amino acid sequences (Hemmingsen, S. M., and Ellis, R. J. (1986) Plant Physiol. 80, 269-276;

The human Aβ peptide causes progressive paralysis when expressed in the muscles of the nematode worm, C. elegans. We have exploited this model of Aβ toxicity by carrying out an RNAi screen to identify genes whose reduced expression modifies the severity ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis expresses two chaperonin-60 homologs. [PDF]
A 65-kDa protein and a 10-kDa protein are two of the more strongly immunoreactive components of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis. The 65-kDa antigen has homology with members of the GroEL or chaperonin-60 (Cpn60) family of heat shock proteins.

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is widely used in clinical practice due to its antiseptic properties and its ability to heal wounds. However, due to its involvement in the formation of ROS, H2O2 causes several side effects, including disorders of the metabolism

Chaperonin 60 unfolds its secrets of cellular communication
The cell biology of the chaperonins (Cpns) has been intensively studied over the past 25 years. These ubiquitous and essential molecules assist proteins to fold into their native state and function to protect proteins from denaturation after stress.

60KDa chaperonin (HSP60) is over-expressed during colorectal carcinogenesis
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the expression of the heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), a mitochondrial matrix-associated protein belonging to the chaperonin family, in colorectal adenomas and cancers, comparing them to normal colonic tissues ...
