Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Evolutionary and functional relationships between the basic and acidic β-crystallins [PDF]
, 1988 β-Crystallins are complex oligomers composed of many related subunits. In order to understand their interactions we have built molecular models of several bovine β-crystallins, based on their sequence similarity to the well-defined γ-II crystallin ...

Structural integrity of the Greek key motif in βγ-crystallins is vital for central eye lens transparency. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: We highlight an unrecognized physiological role for the Greek key motif, an evolutionarily conserved super-secondary structural topology of the βγ-crystallins.

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Canine mammary gland tumours (MGT) represent a common malignancy in intact female dogs, with a high metastasis rate approaching 50% and a poor prognosis. However, metastasis‐related genes remain largely unelucidated. Accordingly, we aimed to identify differentially expressed mRNAs and miRNAs in primary canine MGT tissues from dogs with or ...

CRYSTALLINE RIBONUCLEASE [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1940 1. A crystalline enzyme capable of digesting yeast nucleic acid has been isolated from fresh beef pancreas. 2. The enzyme called "ribonuclease" is a soluble protein of albumin type. Its molecular weight is about 15,000. Its isoelectric point is in the region of pH 8.0. 3.

A novel non-lens betagamma-crystallin and trefoil factor complex from amphibian skin and its functional implications. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 In vertebrates, non-lens betagamma-crystallins are widely expressed in various tissues, but their functions are unknown. The molecular mechanisms of trefoil factors, initiators of mucosal healing and being greatly involved in tumorigenesis, have remained

Molecular insights and translational opportunities to enhance heat tolerance in rice
The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Heat stress is an increasingly serious threat to rice (Oryza sativa L.) productivity, yet the genetic and regulatory architecture underlying thermotolerance remain poorly resolved and fragmented across studies. Earlier research focused on individual pathways or specific developmental stages; however, recent advances now support an integrated ...

Crystalline bacterial catalase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1947 It is now fifty-four years since Gottstein1 discovered that some bacteria are able to decompose hydrogen peroxide with evolution of gaseous oxygen, an activity he attributed to their possessing an intracellular enzyme which later came to be called ‘catalase’.

Sequence comparison of γ-crystallins from the reptilian and other vertebrate species [PDF]
, 1987 Lens crystalline were isolated from homogenates of reptilian eye lenses (Caiman crocodylus apaporiensis) by gel-permeation chromatography and characterized by gel electrophoresis, and amino acid and N-terminal sequence analyses.
