Restricted expression of the zebrafish hsp90alpha gene in slow and fast muscle fiber lineages.

Abstract excerpt

Members of the heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) family of molecular chaperones play important roles in allowing a select group of intracellular signaling molecules reach and maintain functionally active conformations. We have previously shown that hsp90alpha gene expression in early zebrafish embryos is restricted to a subgroup of paraxial-mesoderm derived somitic cells prior to muscle formation and that the gene is...
