Abstract excerpt
A DnaJ-like gene, Cpdj1, a molecular chaperone and regulator of Hsp70 in Cryphonectria parasitica, was characterized. The protein product of Cpdj1 gene consists of 379 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 40.6 kDa and a pI of 7.79. The deduced protein sequence revealed preservation of the conserved hall-mark J-region and exhibited high homolo y to all known DnaJ-like proteins. Disruption of the Cpdj1...
