SMALL HEAT SHOCK PROTEINS -
The small Heat Shock Protein (sHSP) family is characterized by the presence of an α-crystallin domain. sHSPs play a crucial role in protein folding. Most sHSPs have the ability to prevent protein aggregation and to maintain substrate proteins in a refoldable state. (Adapted from FBrf0228040 and FBrf0231212).
Phenotypic Description (Red Book; Lindsley and Zimm 1992)
Hsp22 - Hsp-G3
There are seven closely related heat-shock genes at 67B (Ayme and Tissieres, 1985; Pauli, Arrigo, Vasquez, Tonka, and Tissieres, 1989, Genome 31: 671-76). In addition to the four small heat-shock genes previously identified (Hsp22, Hsp23, Hsp26, and Hsp27), three more genes (Hsp-G1, Hsp-G2, and Hsp-G3, formerly called Gene1, Gene2, and Gene3) have been found clustered within 15 kb of DNA at the same 67B cytological location. All seven genes are heat-shock inducible in almost all cells at the stages tested (Ayme and Tissieres, 1985). The genes are also transcribed during certain developmental stages in the absence of heat shock (Sirotkin and Davidson, 1982, Dev. Biol. 89: 196-210). Pauli et al (1989) report that the maximum accumulation of developmental rRNA in a majority of these small heat-shock genes occurs in the white pupae stage; in Hsp-G2, however, a small transcipt is found in embryos, first and second instar larvae, and young pupae; and a larger transcript in the pupal and adult stages of males (Pauli and Tonka, 1987, J. Mol. Biol. 198: 235-40; Pauli, Tonka, and Ayme-Southgate, 1988, J. Mol. Biol. 200: 47-53). In absence of stress, the expression of Hsp26 has been observed in spermatocytes, nurse cells, epithelium, imaginal discs, proventriculus, and neurocytes (Glaser, Wolfner, and Lis, 1986, EMBO 5: 747-54). Transcripts of Hsp26 and Hsp27 accumulate in adult ovaries, apparently originating in nurse cells (Zimmerman, Petri, and Meselson, 1983, Cell 32: 1161-70).

  • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

              In unshocked cells Hsp83 is moderately transcribed while transcription from the other heat shock genes is undetectable. Engaged but paused RNA molecules are found at the various Hsp70 and Hsp26 genes but not at the other heat shock genes. Increased transcription of the heat shock genes is observed within 1-2 mins of heat shock and maximal rates were reached within 2-5 minutes. Rates of transcription vary over a 20-fold range.

              Exposure of cells to pulses of elevated temperature initiates the heat-shock response. A restricted subset of genes, the Hsp genes, is activated and the majority of transcription and translation is shut down. 3H-uridine incorporation ceases at its usual positions and commences at new puff sites. Preexisting polysomes disaggregate and within a few minutes a new population of polysomes appears containing newly transcribed mRNA; this RNA hybridizes to some of the heat-shock puffs. Similar response inducible by other stressful treatments. The response may be elicited at all stages of the life cycle and in cultured cells.

              In contrast to other heat shock genes, the response of Hsp67Ba to stress is modulated during development.

              The binding sites for the protein factors required for activation of transcription of Hsp genes are multiple short upstream sequence elements called HSEs or heat shock consensus elements.

              Hsp67Ba has been sequenced, and shows homology to the small heat shock genes Hsp22, Hsp23, Hsp26 and Hsp27. It is heat inducible.

              Activation of transcription of Hsp genes apparently involves the sequential binding of two or more protein factors in vicinity of TATA box.

              Polymerase II dissociates from most chromosome regions and accumulates at the new heat shock puff sites upon heat shock.

              Hsp67Ba is transcribed during certain developmental stages in the absence of heat shock.

              The effects of heat shock may be abrogated to some degree by pretreatment with a pulse of a slightly lower temperature.

              Mitochondrial and histone-gene activities persist transcription and translation.

              In polytene cells, during heat shock response, existing puffs regress and a novel group quickly appear at 33B, 63C, 64F, 67B, 70A, 87A, 87C, 93D, 95D.

              The heat shock response follows a pulse of 36oC to 40oC; treatments above 40oC inhibit all activity and lead to death; treatments of 30oC-35oC induce heat-shock-protein synthesis without repressing normal protein synthesis.

              In polytene cells, during heat shock response, existing puffs regress and a novel group quickly appear at cytological locations 33B, 63C, 64F, 67B, 70A, 87A, 87C, 93D, 95D.
