Abstract excerpt
The heat shock protein HtpG, which is a homolog of HSP90, is essential for basal and acquired thermotolerances in cyanobacteria. Recently we demonstrated that HtpG was involved in the acclimation to low temperatures in cyanobacteria. In this study, we elucidated a role of HtpG in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942, in the acclimation to oxidative stress that was caused by high irradiance and/or methyl...
