Functional Characterization of the Small Heat Shock Protein Hsp12p from Candida albicans [PDF]
Hsp12p is considered to be a small heat shock protein and conserved among fungal species. To investigate the expression of this heat shock protein in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans we developed an anti-CaHsp12p antibody.

Heat shock inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced tissue factor activity in human whole blood [PDF]
Background During gram-negative sepsis, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces tissue factor expression on monocytes. The resulting disseminated intravascular coagulation leads to tissue ischemia and worsens the prognosis of septic patients.

Lack of Hikeshi activates HSF1 activity under normal conditions and disturbs the heat-shock response
Hikeshi mediates proper nucleocytoplasmic distribution of HSP70, which is important for regulating of HSF1 activity and nuclear proteostasis, and adaptive response to heat shock.

Comparison of heat-shock responses between the hydrothermal vent shrimp Rimicaris exoculata and the related coastal shrimp Palaemonetes varians [PDF]
The deep-sea vent shrimp Rimicaris exoculata is believed to occur at the hot end of the hydrothermal biotope in order to provide essential elements to its epibiosis. Because it is found close to hot venting water, R.

Robust Heat Shock Response in Chlamydia Lacking a Typical Heat Shock Sigma Factor
Cells reprogram their transcriptome in response to stress, such as heat shock. In free-living bacteria, the transcriptomic reprogramming is mediated by increased DNA-binding activity of heat shock sigma factors and activation of genes normally repressed ...

The Heat Shock Response in the Western Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) is Antiviral
Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are an agriculturally important pollinator species that live in easily managed social groups (i.e., colonies). Unfortunately, annual losses of honey bee colonies in many parts of the world have reached unsustainable levels ...

Identifying gene regulatory modules of heat shock response in yeast
Background A gene regulatory module (GRM) is a set of genes that is regulated by the same set of transcription factors (TFs). By organizing the genome into GRMs, a living cell can coordinate the activities of many genes in response to various internal ...
