Abstract excerpt
The 70-kilodalton heat shock protein family is composed of both environmentally inducible (Hsp) and constitutively expressed (Hsc) family members. While the role of the constitutively expressed stress proteins in thermotolerance is largely unknown, de novo expression of stress proteins in response to elevated temperatures has been associated with increased thermotolerance in many cell lines, developing embryos...
