Disease relevance of hsp

Comparison of low-molecular-weight heat stress proteins encoded on plasmids in different strains of Streptococcus thermophilus [1].
ORF2 corresponded to a putative hsp gene that apparently encodes Hsp16.4, a 142-amino-acid heat stress protein [2].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of hsp

Intact full length hsp 70 (dnaK) mRNA was detected by northern blotting and quantitated after heat shock by slot blot hybridisation [3].
