The Hsp27 gene is not required for Drosophila development but its activity is associated with starvation resistance.

Cell stress & chaperones - 1 Jan 2007

Hao Xinming, Zhang Sen, Timakov Benjamin, Zhang Ping

Abstract excerpt

Heat shock proteins are induced under stress conditions and they act as molecular chaperones to refold denatured polypeptides. Stress resistances including thermotolerance generally are correlated with levels of the heat shock proteins. We investigated a fruit fly gene encoding a small heat shock protein, Hsp27, to determine if it functions in stress response of Drosophila melanogaster. A knockout Hsp27 allele...
