摘要
HSP27 is a small heat-shock protein (sHSP). Such proteins are produced in all organisms. These small HSPs exhibit chaperone-like activity that can bind to unfolded polypeptides and prevent uncontrolled protein aggregation in vitro. Cellular anti-apoptosis function and enhanced cell survival are correlated with increased expression of HSPs. This study presents a thermal-stress survival model for cells using the Escherichia coli expression system for which human HSP27, a recombinant protein, is inducible. Results show that E coli cells overexpressing human HSP27 have enhanced tolerance to 50 degrees C thermal stress. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
