The Development of ELISA and SPR-Based Immunoassays for the Detection of Heat Shock Proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Heat shock proteins as hallmarks of cancer: insights from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic strategies

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology
Heat shock proteins are essential molecular chaperones that play crucial roles in stabilizing protein structures, facilitating the repair or degradation of damaged proteins, and maintaining proteostasis and cellular functions.

Minimal Yet Powerful: The Role of Archaeal Small Heat Shock Proteins in Maintaining Protein Homeostasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Small heat shock proteins (sHsp) are a ubiquitous group of ATP-independent chaperones found in all three domains of life. Although sHsps in bacteria and eukaryotes have been studied extensively, little information was available on their archaeal homologs

Proteomic analysis of the heat shock and acclimation responses of Cyanobacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

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 ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Two sides of the same coin: heat shock proteins as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for some complex diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Heat shock proteins are molecular chaperones that play crucial roles in the folding and unfolding of complex polypeptides within the cellular system. These molecules are involved in various processes, including vesicular transport, prevention of protein ...

Enhanced levels of cold shock proteins in Listeria monocytogenes LO28 upon exposure to low temperature and high hydrostatic pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Listeria monocytogenes is a psychrotrophic food-borne pathogen that is problematic for the food industry because of its ubiquitous distribution in nature and its ability to grow at low temperatures and in the presence of high salt concentrations.

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...
