Heat shock protects germinating conidiospores of Neurospora crassa against freezing injury.
Germinating conidiospores of Neurospora crassa that were exposed to 45 degrees C, a temperature that induces a heat shock response, were protected from injury caused by freezing in liquid nitrogen and subsequent thawing at 0 degrees C. Whereas up to 90% of the control spores were killed by this freezing and slow thawing, a prior heat shock increased cell survival four- to fivefold. Survival was...
متن کاملInteraction of the Neurospora crassa heat shock factor with the heat shock element during heat shock and different developmental stages.
The interaction of the heat shock factor (HSF) with the heat shock element (HSE) was determined by a non-radioactive electrophoretic mobility shift assay, in order to analyze HSF regulation in Neurospora crassa. HSF binds to HSE under normal, non-stress conditions and is thus constitutively trimerized. Upon heat shock, the HSF-HSE complex shows a retarded mobility. This was also observed in Sac...
متن کاملHydrogen sulfide treatment protects against renal ischemia-reperfusion injury via induction of heat shock proteins in rats
Objective(s): Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) attenuates ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in different organs. However, its mechanism of action in renal IRI remains unclear. The present study investigated the hypothesis that H2S attenuates renal IRI via the induction of heat shock proteins (HSPs).Materials and Methods: Adult Wistar rats were subjected to unilateral renal ischemia for 45 min followed by...
متن کاملBiotransformation of Hydrocortisone by Neurospora crassa
The ability of Neurospora crassa FGSC 4335 in the biotransformation of hydrocortisone was investigated. The microorganism produced two major metabolites after incubation with the substrate for seven days. Each microbial product was purified chromatographically and identified on the basis of spectral data. The products were identified as 11?,17?,20?,21-tetrahydroxypregn-4-en-3-one (II) and 11?-h...
متن کاملTemperature adaptation of house keeping and heat shock gene expression in Neurospora crassa.
Adaptation of house keeping and heat shock gene expression was determined in Neurospora crassa during continuous exposure to different temperatures. Steady-state values of total protein synthesis differed little after incubation for 24 h at temperatures between 15 and 42 degreesC. Adaptation kinetics at 42 degreesC showed an initial, transient inhibition of total protein synthesis. Similar kine...
