Proteomic analysis of the heat shock and acclimation responses of Cyanobacteria [PDF]
, 2005 The cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 is a model experimental organism for proteomic research because its entire genomic sequence is available and cyanobacteria have high adaptive potential towards a variety of environmental stresses.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

p53-dependent induction of heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) expression [PDF]
International Journal of Cancer, 2000 Transcriptional activation of the p53 target genes plays a critical role in the cellular response to DNA damage, hypoxia, cellular stress and other signals regulating the cell cycle and apoptosis. The discovery of new p53 target genes continues to reveal novel mechanisms of action of this multifaceted protein.

The Development of ELISA and SPR-Based Immunoassays for the Detection of Heat Shock Proteins. [PDF]
, 2009 Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are highly conserved molecules in all eukaryotes and prokaryotes. They are named on the basis of their molecular weight and their synthesis is up-regulated by stress conditions such as inflammation, oxidative stress and ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...
