Figure 1: Heat preconditioning protects against extreme thermal stress through HSF-1 and HSP-16.1. Overexpression of hsp-16.1 under the control of a heterologous, non-heat-shock-responsive promoter, ...

Heat shock and other stresses induce the expression of several families of proteins. In turn, these heat shock proteins (HSPs) protect cells against the consequences of these agressions. One of these ...

Good morning! No amusing Radio 4 stories today, as I woke up one minute before the clock/radio was due to go off - isn't it surprising how often that happens, we obviously have some sort of internal ...
