Rsp5/​Nedd4 is the main ubiquitin ligase that targets cytosolic misfolded proteins following heat stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The heat-shock response is a complex cellular program that induces major changes in protein translation, folding and degradation to alleviate toxicity caused by protein misfolding.

Microbial Heat Shock Proteins: Roles Other Than Just Stress Proteins

open access: yesBiology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023
Heat shock proteins are named stress proteins or stress molecules due to their secretion being triggered by stress encountered by living beings. Although their primary documented role has been maintaining and regulating protein conformations to reduce ...

Heat Shock Proteins as Immunomodulants

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are conserved molecules whose main role is to facilitate folding of other proteins. Most Hsps are generally stress-inducible as they play a particularly important cytoprotective role in cells exposed to stressful conditions ...

Heat-Shock Proteins in Neuroinflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
The heat-shock response, one of the main pro-survival mechanisms of a living organism, has evolved as the biochemical response of cells to cope with heat stress.

Changes in the transcriptome of morula-stage bovine embryos caused by heat shock: relationship to developmental acquisition of thermotolerance

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2013
Background While initially sensitive to heat shock, the bovine embryo gains thermal resistance as it progresses through development so that physiological heat shock has little effect on development to the blastocyst stage by Day 5 after insemination ...

Hsp70 in mitochondrial biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The family of hsp70 (70 kilodalton heat shock protein) molecular chaperones plays an essential and diverse role in cellular physiology, Hsp70 proteins appear to elicit their effects by interacting with polypeptides that present domains which exhibit non ...

Functions and Therapeutic Use of Heat Shock Proteins in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesLivers
Heat shock proteins are intracellular proteins expressed in prokaryotes and eukaryotes that help protect the cell from stress. They play an important role in regulating cell cycle and cell death, work as molecular chaperons during the folding of newly ...

The Emerging Role of Heat Shock Factor 1 (HSF1) and Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) in Ferroptosis

open access: yesPathophysiology, 2023
Cells employ a well-preserved physiological stress response mechanism, termed the heat shock response, to activate a certain type of molecular chaperone called heat shock proteins (HSPs).
