The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.In this issue, Elmaleh et al. demonstrate that the E425K mutation in DNAJC7, associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, selectively abolishes one of a co‐chaperone's dual functions. High‐resolution NMR confirmed that the mutation leaves the protein's structure intact while paralyzing its communication with the Hsp70 machinery.

Relationships Among Beef Cow Productivity Traits and Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in the Bovine Heat Shock Protein 70 Gene [PDF]
, 2018 When eukaryotes are exposed to stressors such as heat, toxins, and low oxygen levels, heat shock proteins (HSPs) are synthesized to maintain normal cellular function within the body.

Gain‐of‐function enhancers optimize CAR‐NK cell‐based anti‐cancer immunotherapy
Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.Schematic overview of the two‐stage screening approach used to identify NK cell fitness genes. (A) CRISPRa mechanism, showing dCas9‐VP64‐mediated upregulation of target genes. (B) Whole‐genome CRISPRa screening in HER2‐CAR‐NK92 cells transduced with a CRISPR sgRNA library and transferred into mice bearing HT29 tumours, followed by tumour collection and

PLoS ONE, 2018 Embryos of the crustacean, Artemia franciscana, may undergo oviparous development, forming encysted embryos (cysts) that are released from females and enter diapause, a state of suppressed metabolism and greatly enhanced stress tolerance.

Serum HSF1 is upregulated in endometriosis patients and serves as a potential diagnostic biomarker
Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023 Endometriosis (EMS) is a prevalent gynecological condition lacking reliable diagnostic biomarkers. This prospective study aimed to analyze the potential of serum heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) as a diagnostic marker for EMS.

A role for SUMO modification in transcriptional repression and activation [PDF]
, 2007 Since the discovery of the SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) family of proteins just over a decade ago, a plethora of substrates have been uncovered including many regulators of transcription.

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Climate‐driven aquatic heatwaves pose an increasing threat to fish populations by inducing prolonged thermal stress. However, the resilience of teleosts to chronic heat exposure and their capacity for recovery remains poorly understood. This study investigated the effects of chronic high‐temperature exposure on juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio).

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...
