High impact information on hsp70

  • Within the follicle cells, these factors (possibly peptides) are thought to be shuttled to the cell membrane by an hsp70 homolog (Cihsp70) [1].
  • The obvious high multiplicity of self-nonself recognition alleles involved in fertilization, and the involvement of an hsp70 and a proteasome in processing self-sterility factors, suggests that this system may be evolutionarily related to the vertebrate immune system [1].
  • The hsp70 protein is involved in the acquisition of gamete self-sterility in the ascidian Ciona intestinalis [2].
