The Small Heat Shock Protein p26 Aids Development of Encysting Artemia Embryos, Prevents Spontaneous Diapause Termination and Protects against Stress
Artemia franciscana embryos enter diapause as encysted gastrulae, a physiological state of metabolic dormancy and enhanced stress resistance. The objective of this study was to use RNAi to investigate the function of p26, an abundant, diapause-specific small heat shock protein, in the development and behavior of encysted Artemia embryos (cysts). RNAi methodology was developed where injection of...
متن کاملNuclear p26, a small heat shock/alpha-crystallin protein, and its relationship to stress resistance in Artemia franciscana embryos.
The role of the small heat shock/alpha-crystallin protein, p26, in transcription in Artemia franciscana embryos was examined using isolated nuclei, containing either control or elevated levels of p26, in transcription run-on assays. Heat shock or anoxia in vivo and acid pH in vitro were used to transfer p26 into nuclei. The results suggest that parameters other than, or in addition to, p26 are ...
متن کاملArHsp21, a developmentally regulated small heat-shock protein synthesized in diapausing embryos of Artemia franciscana.
Embryos of the crustacean, Artemia franciscana, undergo alternative developmental pathways, producing either larvae or encysted embryos (cysts). The cysts enter diapause, characterized by exceptionally high resistance to environmental stress, a condition thought to involve the sHSP (small heat-shock protein), p26. Subtractive hybridization has revealed another sHSP, termed ArHsp21, in diapause-...
متن کاملInduction of apoptosis by quercetin: involvement of heat shock protein.
Quercetin, a widely distributed bioflavonoid, inhibits the growth of tumor cells. The present study was designed to investigate the possible involvement of apoptosis and heat shock protein in the antitumor activity of quercetin. Treatment with quercetin of K562, Molt-4, Raji, and MCAS tumor cell lines resulted in morphological changes, including propidium iodide-stained condensed nuclei (intact...
متن کاملA plant small heat shock protein gene expressed during zygotic embryogenesis but noninducible by heat stress.
A small heat shock protein (sHSP) gene from sunflower, Ha hsp17.6 G1, showed expression patterns that differ from what is known for members of this gene family. The mRNAs of this gene accumulated in seeds during late desiccation stages of zygotic embryogenesis but not in response to heat shock in vegetative tissues. The failure to respond to heat shock was independent of the developmental stage...
