Recombinant Human Heat Shock

Isolation of Heat Shock Protein Complexes

Heat shock proteins (Hsp) are molecular chaperones with the capability to interact with a wide range of other proteins and are thus often found coupled with other heat shock and non-heat shock proteins. This can be an advantage to study

Heat-Shock Protein Fusion Vectors for Improved Expression of Soluble Recombinant Proteins in Escherichia coli

Molecular chaperones or heat-shock proteins (HSPs) are protein machines that interact with unfolded or partially folded polypeptides and assist them in attaining their proper conformation. The folding reaction relies on a complex array

热休克蛋白 heat-shock protein

指将生物的整体、组织、细胞等从其生活的温度范围内急剧地从低温移向高温时，可显著地促进合成的一组蛋白质。例如将果蝇的幼虫或培养细胞从28℃移至 35℃时，则几乎大部分的蛋白质合成停止；与此相反，而休克蛋白的合成却反而被促进。这种促进作用主要是在转录 DNA的合成（转录）阶段产生的。同样的现象也见于哺乳类动物、培养细胞、原生动物、植物组织和细菌等。另外观察到，由休克以外的其他处理也会发生类似的现象。这种现象的生理意义尚不清楚，但推测是与生物的温度适应现象有关系。
