Abstract excerpt
Under heat-stress conditions bacteria induce, among other heat-shock proteins, the Hsp70 molecular chaperone (DnaK), which is involved in protein stabilization. It has been shown in Escherichia coli that an Hsp70 homologue called Hsc66, which is widespread in bacteria, functions as a chaperone in vitro. This paper reports the isolation of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa W51D mutant (W51M22) by insertion of the...
