Heat shock protein 90: biological functions, diseases, and therapeutic targets
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a predominant member among Heat shock proteins (HSPs), playing a central role in cellular protection and maintenance by aiding in the folding, stabilization, and modification of diverse protein substrates. It collaborates

Discovery and development of natural heat shock protein 90 inhibitors in cancer treatment
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a highly conserved molecular chaperone that plays a vital role in the signal transduction of cancers. Hsp90 inhibitors are able to inhibit Hsp90 or the complex of Hsp90 and co-chaperones resulting in the degradation of ...

In silico analysis of the HSP90 chaperone system from the African trypanosome, Trypanosoma brucei
African trypanosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by Trypanosoma brucei (T. brucei) and spread by the tsetse fly in sub-Saharan Africa. The trypanosome relies on heat shock proteins for survival in the insect vector and mammalian host.

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90)
Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a widely used technique for genome-wide mapping of protein-DNA interactions and epigenetic marks in vivo. Recent studies have suggested an important role of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) in chromatin. This molecular chaperone assists other proteins to acquire their mature and functional

RET Is a Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90) Client Protein and Is Knocked Down upon HSP90 Pharmacological Block [PDF]
Mutations of the RET receptor tyrosine kinase are associated to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2) and sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). The heat shock protein (HSP) 90 chaperone is required for folding and stability of several kinases.
