Is Hsp90 a regulator of evolvability?

The Journal of experimental zoology - 15 Aug 1999

Wagner G P, Chiu C H, Hansen T F

Abstract excerpt

In a recent paper, Rutherford and Lindquist (1998. Nature 396:336-342) identified mutations in the Hsp90 protein that act to unmask hidden genetic variation with a variety of phenotypic effects. The Hsp90 protein has a number of properties that suggest a role in regulating the expression of genetic variation and therefore in adjusting the evolvability of the organism. In this paper we reflect upon the...
