RNA structure mediated thermoregulation: What can we learn from plants?
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 RNA molecules have the capacity to form a multitude of distinct secondary and tertiary structures, but only the most energetically favorable conformations are adopted at any given time. Formation of such structures strongly depends on the environment and

Phytochromes function as thermosensors in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Science, 2016 Combining heat and light responses Plants integrate a variety of environmental signals to regulate growth patterns. Legris et al. and Jung et al. analyzed how the quality of light is interpreted through ambient temperature to regulate ...

Feeling the heat at the millennium: Thermosensors playing with fire [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2020 AbstractAn outstanding question regards the ability of organisms to sense their environments and respond in a suitable way. Pathogenic bacteria in particular exploit host‐temperature sensing as a cue for triggering virulence gene expression. This micro‐review does not attempt to fully cover the field of bacterial thermosensors and in detail describe ...

Molecular mechanism of thermosensory function of human heat shock transcription factor Hsf1
eLife, 2016 The heat shock response is a universal homeostatic cell autonomous reaction of organisms to cope with adverse environmental conditions. In mammalian cells, this response is mediated by the heat shock transcription factor Hsf1, which is monomeric in ...

The extraordinary AFD thermosensor of C. elegans [PDF]
Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2017 The nematode C. elegans exhibits complex thermal experience-dependent navigation behaviors in response to environmental temperature changes of as little as 0.01°C over a > 10°C temperature range. The remarkable thermosensory abilities of this animal are mediated primarily via the single pair of AFD sensory neurons in its head.

Thermostability of Two Cyanobacterial GrpE Thermosensors [PDF]
Plant and Cell Physiology, 2011 GrpE proteins act as co-chaperones for DnaK heat-shock proteins. The dimeric protein unfolds under heat stress conditions, which results in impaired interaction with a DnaK protein. Since interaction of GrpE with DnaK is crucial for the DnaK chaperone activity, GrpE proteins act as a thermosensor in bacteria.
