Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is the main intermediate filament protein in mature
astrocytes, but also an important component of the cytoskeleton in astrocytes during …

Intracellular deposition of aggregated and ubiquitylated proteins is a prominent
cytopathological feature of most neurodegenerative disorders. Whether protein aggregates …

The α-, β-and γ-crystallins are the major protein components of the vertebrate eye lens, α-

The small heat shock proteins (sHsps) from human (Hsp27) and mouse (Hsp25) form large
oligomers which can act as molecular chaperones in vitro and protect cells from heat shock …

Alpha A and alpha B-crystallins are a major protein component of the mammalian eye lens.

Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are present in all kingdoms of life and play fundamental
roles in cell biology. sHSPs are key components of the cellular protein quality control …

Hsp27, αB-crystallin and HSP22 are ubiquitous small heat shock proteins (sHsp) whose
expression is induced in response to a wide variety of unfavorable physiological and …

Small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are a conserved and ubiquitous protein family. Their
ability to convey thermoresistance suggests their participation in protecting the native …
