Journal of molecular biology - 1 Dec 2024
Aguilar-Rodríguez José, Jakobson Christopher M, Jarosz Daniel F
Abstract excerpt
Global modifier genes influence the mapping of genotypes onto phenotypes and fitness through their epistatic interactions with genetic variants on a massive scale. The first such factor to be identified, Hsp90, is a highly conserved molecular chaperone that plays a central role in protein homeostasis. Hsp90 is a "hub of hubs" that chaperones proteins engaged in many key cellular and developmental regulatory...
