Bacteria use complex strategies to coordinate temperature-dependent gene expression.
Many genes encoding heat shock proteins and virulence factors are regulated by …

Small heat-shock proteins (sHsps) are a widespread and diverse class of molecular
chaperones. Recent evidence suggests that they maintain protein homeostasis by binding …

The potentiation of antibiotics is a promising strategy for combatting antibiotic-
resistant/tolerant bacteria. Herein, we report that a 5-min sublethal heat shock enhances the …

The heat-shock response is a mechanism of cellular protection against sudden adverse
environmental growth conditions and results in the prompt production of various heat-shock …

Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) associate with nuclei, cytoskeleton and membranes, and
as molecular chaperones they bind partially denatured proteins, thereby preventing …

The chaperone protein network controls both initial protein folding and subsequent
maintenance of proteins in the cell. Although the native structure of a protein is principally …

Bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) are functional, non-toxic amyloids occurring in recombinant
bacteria showing analogies with secretory granules of the mammalian endocrine system …

Extreme environmental conditions seriously affect crop growth and development, resulting in
a decrease in crop yield and quality. However, small heat shock proteins (Hsp20s) play an …

Small heat shock proteins (sH sps) are an evolutionary conserved class of ATP‐
independent chaperones that protect cells against proteotoxic stress. sH sps form …

From microbes to multicellular eukaryotic organisms, all cells contain pathways responsible
for genome maintenance. DNA replication allows for the faithful duplication of the genome …
