Phosphorylation of HSP27 during development and decay of thermotolerance in Chinese hamster cells

Abstract excerpt

The small molecular weight heat shock protein HSP27 was recently shown to confer a stable thermoresistant phenotype when expressed constitutively in mammalian cells after structural gene transfection. These results suggested that HSP27 may also play an important role in the development of thermotolerance, the transient ability to survive otherwise lethal heat exposure after a mild heat shock. In Chinese hamster...
