Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have been attracting the attention of researchers for many years. HSPs are a family of ubiquitous, well-characterised proteins that are generally regarded as protective multifunctional molecules that are expressed in response to different types of cell stress. Their activity in many organs has been reported, including the heart, brain, and retina. By acting as chaperone proteins, HSPs help to refold denatured proteins. Moreover, HSPs elicit inhibitory activity in apoptotic pathways and inflammation. Heat shock proteins were originally classified into several subfamilies, including the HSP70 family. The aim of this paper is to systematise information from the available literature about the presence of HSP70 in the human eye and its role in the pathogenesis of ocular diseases. HSP70 has been identified in the cornea, lens, and retina of a normal eye. The increased expression and synthesis of HSP70 induced by cell stress has also been demonstrated in eyes with pathologies such as glaucoma, eye cancers, cataracts, scarring of the cornea, ocular toxpoplasmosis, PEX, AMD, RPE, and diabetic retinopathy. Most of the studies cited in this paper confirm the protective role of HSP70. However, little is known about these molecules in the human eye and their role in the pathogenesis of eye diseases. Therefore, understanding the role of HSP70 in the pathophysiology of injuries to the cornea, lens, and retina is essential for the development of new therapies aimed at limiting and/or reversing the processes that cause damage to the eye.

Abstract
Maintenance of protein homeostasis is necessary for cell viability and depends on a complex network of chaperones and co-chaperones, including the heat-shock protein 70 (Hsp70) system. In human mitochondria, mitochondrial Hsp70 (mortalin) and the nucleotide exchange factor (GrpEL1) work synergistically to stabilize proteins, assemble protein complexes, and facilitate protein import. However, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms guiding these processes is hampered by limited structural information. To elucidate these mechanistic details, we used cryoEM to determine the first structures of full-length human mortalin-GrpEL1 complexes in previously unobserved states. Our structures and molecular dynamics simulations allow us to delineate specific roles for mortalin-GrpEL1 interfaces and to identify steps in GrpEL1-mediated nucleotide and substrate release by mortalin. Subsequent analyses reveal conserved mechanisms across bacteria and mammals and facilitate a complete understanding of sequential nucleotide and substrate release for the Hsp70 chaperone system.

GDSL Lipase Gene HTA1 Negatively Regulates Heat Tolerance in Rice Seedlings by Regulating Reactive Oxygen Species Accumulation. Antioxidants (Basel) 2024; 13:592.

Abstract
High temperature is a significant environmental stress that limits plant growth and agricultural productivity. GDSL lipase is a hydrolytic enzyme with a conserved GDSL sequence at the N-terminus, which has various biological functions, such as participating in plant growth, development, lipid metabolism, and stress resistance. However, little is known about the function of the GDSL lipase gene in the heat tolerance of rice. Here, we characterized a lipase family protein coding gene HTA1, which was significantly induced by high temperature in rice. Rice seedlings in which the mutant hta1 was knocked out showed enhanced heat tolerance, whereas the overexpressing HTA1 showed more sensitivity to heat stress. Under heat stress, hta1 could reduce plant membrane damage and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and elevate the activity of antioxidant enzymes. Moreover, real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis showed that mutant hta1 significantly activated gene expression in antioxidant enzymes, heat response, and defense. In conclusion, our results suggest that HTA1 negatively regulates heat stress tolerance by modulating the ROS accumulation and the expression of heat-responsive and defense-related genes in rice seedlings. This research will provide a valuable resource for utilizing HTA1 to improve crop heat tolerance.

Cell Stress Chaperones 2023; 28:689-696. [PMID: 37910345 PMCID: PMC10746692 DOI: 10.1007/s12192-023-01392-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Inclusion body-associated proteins IbpA and IbpB of MW 16 KDa are the two small heat-shock proteins (sHSPs) of Escherichia coli, and they have only holding, but not folding, chaperone activity. In vitro holdase activity of IbpB is more than that of IbpA, and in combination, they synergise. Both IbpA and IbpB monomers first form homodimers, which as building blocks subsequently oligomerize to make heavy oligomers with MW of MDa range; for IbpB, the MW range of heavy oligomers is 2.0-3.0 MDa, whereas for IbpA oligomers, the values in MDa are not so specified/reported. By temperature upshift, such large oligomers of IbpB, but not of IbpA, dissociate to make relatively small oligomeric assemblies of MW around 600-700KDa. The larger oligomers of IbpB are assumed to be inactive storage form, which on facing heat or oxidative stress dissociate into smaller oligomers of ATP-independent holding chaperone activity. These smaller oligomers bind with stress-induced partially denatured/unfolded and thereby going to be aggregated proteins, to give them protection against permanent damage and aggregation. On withdrawal of stress, IbpB transfers the bound substrate protein to the ATP-dependent bi-chaperone system DnaKJE-ClpB, having both holdase and foldase properties, to finally refold the protein. Of the two sHSPs IbpA and IbpB of E. coli, this review covers the recent advances in research on IbpB only.

Abstract
Thermal therapy has been widely used in clinical tumor treatment and more recently in combination with chemotherapy, where the key challenge is the treatment resistance. The mechanism at the cellular level underlying the resistance to thermo-chemical combination therapy remains elusive. In this study, we constructed 3D culture models for glioma cells (i.e., 3D glioma spheres) as the model system to recapitulate the native tumor microenvironment and systematically investigated the thermal response of 3D glioma spheres at different hyperthermic temperatures. We found that 3D glioma spheres show high viability under hyperthermia, especially under high hyperthermic temperatures (42 °C). Further study revealed that the main mechanism lies in the high energy level of cells in 3D glioma spheres under hyperthermia, which enables the cells to respond promptly to thermal stimulation and maintain cellular viability by upregulating the chaperon protein Hsp70 and the anti-apoptotic pathway AKT. Besides, we also demonstrated that 3D glioma spheres show strong drug resistance to the thermo-chemical combination therapy. This study provides a new perspective on understanding the thermal response of combination therapy for tumor treatment.

Abstract
Laminopathies are a group of rare genetic disorders with heterogeneous clinical phenotypes such as premature aging, cardiomyopathy, lipodystrophy, muscular dystrophy, microcephaly, epilepsy, and so on. The cellular phenomena associated with laminopathy invariably show disruption of nucleoskeleton of lamina due to deregulated expression, localization, function, and interaction of mutant lamin proteins. Impaired spatial and temporal tethering of lamin proteins to the lamina or nucleoplasmic aggregation of lamins are the primary molecular events that can trigger nuclear proteotoxicity by modulating differential protein-protein interactions, sequestering quality control proteins, and initiating a cascade of abnormal post-translational modifications. Clearly, laminopathic cells exhibit moderate to high nuclear proteotoxicity, raising the question of whether an imbalance in nuclear proteostasis is involved in laminopathic diseases, particularly in diseases of early aging such as HGPS and laminopathy-associated premature aging. Here, we review nuclear proteostasis and its deregulation in the context of lamin proteins and laminopathies.

Abstract
Current understanding of adaptability to high temperatures is increasingly important as extreme weather events that can trigger immediate physiological stress in organisms have occurred more frequently. Here, we tracked transcriptomic responses of gills, hepatopancreas, and muscle to acute thermal exposure at 30 °C for 0.5, 6, and 12 h in an economically important crustacean, Oratosquilla oratoria, to gain a preliminary understanding of the tissue-specific and dynamic physiological regulation process under acute heat stress. The unique physiological responses of muscle, hepatopancreas, and gills to acute thermal stress were associated with protein degradation, lipid transport, and energy metabolism in O. oratoria, respectively. Functional enrichment analysis of differentially expressed transcripts and heat-responsive gene clusters revealed a biphasic protective responsiveness of O. oratoria developed from the early responses of signal transduction, immunity, and cytoskeleton reorganization to the responses dominated by protein turnover and energy metabolism at the mid-late stages under acute heat stress. Noteworthy, trend analysis revealed a consistently upregulated expression pattern of high molecular weight heat shock protein (HSP) family members (HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90) during the entire thermal exposure process, highlighting their importance for maintaining heat resistance in O. oratoria. Documenting the whole process of transcriptional responses at fine temporal resolution will contribute to a far-reaching comprehension of plastic responses to acute heat stress in crustaceans, which is critical in the context of a changing climate.

Abstract
The function, stability, and turnover of plasma membrane (PM) proteins are crucial for cellular homeostasis. Compared to soluble proteins, quality control of plasma membrane proteins is extremely challenging. Failure to meet the high quality control standards is detrimental to cellular and organismal health. J-domain proteins (JDPs) are among the most diverse group of chaperones that collaborate with other chaperones and protein degradation machinery to oversee cellular protein quality control (PQC). Although fragmented, the available literature from different models, including yeast, mammals, and plants, suggests that JDPs assist PM proteins with their synthesis, folding, and trafficking to their destination as well as their degradation, either through endocytic or proteasomal degradation pathways. Moreover, some JDPs interact directly with the membrane to regulate the stability and/or functionality of proteins at the PM. The deconvoluted picture emerging is that PM proteins are relayed from one JDP to another throughout their life cycle, further underscoring the versatility of the Hsp70:JDP machinery in the cell.

Abstract
Increased temperatures caused by climate change constitute a significant threat to agriculture and food security. The selection of improved crop varieties with greater tolerance to heat stress is crucial for the future of agriculture. To overcome this challenge, four traditional tomato varieties from the Mediterranean basin and two commercial genotypes were selected to characterize their responses at high temperatures. The screening of phenotypes under heat shock conditions allowed to classify the tomato genotypes as: heat-sensitive: TH-30, ADX2; intermediate: ISR-10 and Ailsa Craig; heat-tolerant: MM and MO-10. These results reveal the intra-genetical variation of heat stress responses, which can be exploited as promising sources of tolerance to climate change conditions. Two different thermotolerance strategies were observed. The MO-10 plants tolerance was based on the control of the leaf cooling mechanism and the rapid RBOHB activation and ABA signaling pathways. The variety MM displayed a different strategy based on the activation of HSP70 and 90, as well as accumulation of phenolic compounds correlated with early induction of PAL expression. The importance of secondary metabolism in the recovery phase has been also revealed. Understanding the molecular events allowing plants to overcome heat stress constitutes a promising approach for selecting climate resilient tomato varieties.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative disease with unknown etiology that can be characterized by the presence of demyelinated lesions. Prevailing treatment protocols in MS rely on the modulation of the inflammatory process but do not impact disease progression. Remyelination is an essential factor for both axonal survival and functional neurological recovery but is often insufficient. The extracellular matrix protein fibronectin contributes to the inhibitory environment created in MS lesions and likely plays a causative role in remyelination failure. The presence of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) hinders the delivery of remyelination therapeutics to lesions. Therefore, therapeutic interventions to normalize the pathogenic MS lesion environment need to be able to cross the BBB. In this review, we outline the multifaceted roles of fibronectin in MS pathogenesis and discuss promising therapeutic targets and agents to overcome fibronectin-mediated inhibition of remyelination. In addition, to pave the way for clinical use, we reflect on opportunities to deliver MS therapeutics to lesions through the utilization of nanomedicine and discuss strategies to deliver fibronectin-directed therapeutics across the BBB. The use of well-designed nanocarriers with appropriate surface functionalization to cross the BBB and target the lesion sites is recommended.

Abstract
Background Tumorous imaginal disc 1 (hTid-1) or DnaJ homolog subfamily A member 3 (DNAJA3), is a part of the heat shock protein (Hsp) 40 family and is predominantly found to reside in the mitochondria. hTid-1 has two mRNA splicing variants, hTid-1S and hTid-1L of 40 and 43 kDa respectively in the cytosol which are later processed upon import into the mitochondrial matrix. hTid-1 protein is a part of the DnaJ family of proteins which are co-chaperones and specificity factors for DnaK proteins of the Hsp70 family, and bind to Hsp70, thereby activating its ATPase activity. hTid-1 has been found to be critical for a lot of important cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, growth, survival, senescence, apoptosis, and movement and plays key roles in the embryo and skeletal muscle development.
Main body hTid-1 participates in several protein–protein interactions in the cell, which mediate different processes such as proteasomal degradation and autophagy of the interacting protein partners. hTid-1 also functions as a co-chaperone and participates in interactions with several different viral oncoproteins. hTid-1 also plays a critical role in different human diseases such as different cancers, cardiomyopathies, and neurodegenerative disorders. Conclusion This review article is the first of its kind presenting consolidated information on the research findings of hTid-1 to date. This review suggests that the current knowledge of the role of hTid-1 in disorders like cancers, cardiomyopathies, and neurodegenerative diseases can be correlated with the findings of its protein–protein interactions that can provide a deep insight into the pathways by which hTid-1 affects disease pathogenesis and it can be stated that hTid-1 may serve as an important therapeutic target for these disorders.

Abstract
Non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)-mediated integration is effective in generating random mutagenesis to identify beneficial gene targets in the whole genome, which can significantly promote the performance of the strains. Here, a novel target leading to higher protein synthesis was identified by NHEJ-mediated integration that seriously improved fatty alcohols biosynthesis in Yarrowia lipolytica. One batch of strains transformed with fatty acyl-CoA reductase gene (FAR) showed significant differences (up to 70.53-fold) in fatty alcohol production. Whole-genome sequencing of the high-yield strain demonstrated that a new target YALI0_A00913g ("A1 gene") was disrupted by NHEJ-mediated integration of partial carrier DNA, and reverse engineering of the A1 gene disruption (YlΔA1-FAR) recovered the fatty alcohol overproduction phenotype. Transcriptome analysis of YlΔA1-FAR strain revealed A1 disruption led to strengthened protein synthesis process that was confirmed by sfGFP gene expression, which may account for enhanced cell viability and improved biosynthesis of fatty alcohols. This study identified a novel target that facilitated synthesis capacity and provided new insights into unlocking biosynthetic potential for future genetic engineering in Y. lipolytica.

Abstract
The potato virus Y (PVY) is a plant virus that causes massive crop losses globally, especially in Solanaceae crops. A strain of the plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR), Serratia marcescens-S3 was found to inhibit PVY replication in Nicotiana benthamiana. However, there have been no in-depth studies demonstrating the underlying mechanism. In the current study, we found that ubiquitination of NbHsc70-2 is an important way for Serratia marcescens-S3 to trigger induced systemic resistance (ISR). After the treatment with S. marcescens-S3, the protein level of NbHsc70-2 reduced significantly. Inhibiting of ubiquitination increased the accumulation of NbHsc70-2 in plants and reduced S. marcescens-S3-mediated resistance to PVY. Furthermore, transgenic engineered Nicotiana benthamiana NbHsc70-2KO and NbHsc70-2USM were constructed using CRISPR-Cas9-mediated NbHsc70-2 knock-out and ubiquitination respectively. S. marcescens-S3 significantly reduced the inhibition of NbHsc70-2 protein accumulation in NbHsc70-2KO and NbHsc70-2USM . The virulence of PVY was stronger in NbHsc70-2USM than the wild-type plants. These results showed that S. marcescens-S3 increases the ubiquitination of NbHsc70-2 to inhibit the recruitment of molecular chaperone NbHsc70-2 to reduce its replication and infection of PVY.

Abstract
Hsp70s are ubiquitous and highly conserved molecular chaperones. They play crucial roles in maintaining cellular protein homeostasis. It is well established that Hsp70s use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to ADP to power the chaperone activity regardless of the cellular locations and isoforms. Binding immunoglobin protein (BiP), the major member of Hsp70s in the endoplasmic reticulum, is essential for protein folding and quality control. Unexpectedly, our structural analysis of BiP demonstrated a novel ATP hydrolysis to AMP during crystallization under the acidic conditions. Our biochemical studies confirmed this newly discovered ATP to AMP hydrolysis in solutions. Unlike the canonical ATP to ADP hydrolysis observed for Hsp70s, this ATP hydrolysis to AMP depends on the substrate-binding domain of BiP and is inhibited by the binding of a peptide substrate. Intriguingly, this ATP to AMP hydrolysis is unique to BiP, not shared by two representative Hsp70 proteins from the cytosol. Taken together, this novel and unique ATP to AMP hydrolysis may provide a potentially new direction for understanding the activity and cellular function of BiP.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins of 110 kDa (Hsp110s), a unique class of molecular chaperones, are essential for maintaining protein homeostasis. Hsp110s exhibit a strong chaperone activity preventing protein aggregation (the "holdase" activity) and also function as the major nucleotide-exchange factor (NEF) for Hsp70 chaperones. Hsp110s contain two functional domains: a nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) and substrate-binding domain (SBD). ATP binding is essential for Hsp110 function and results in close contacts between the NBD and SBD. However, the molecular mechanism of this ATP-induced allosteric coupling remains poorly defined. In this study, we carried out biochemical analysis on Msi3, the sole Hsp110 in Candida albicans, to dissect the unique allosteric coupling of Hsp110s using three mutations affecting the domain-domain interface. All the mutations abolished both the in vivo and in vitro functions of Msi3. While the ATP-bound state was disrupted in all mutants, only mutation of the NBD-SBDβ interfaces showed significant ATPase activity, suggesting that the full-length Hsp110s have an ATPase that is mainly suppressed by NBD-SBDβ contacts. Moreover, the high-affinity ATP-binding unexpectedly appears to require these NBD-SBD contacts. Remarkably, the "holdase" activity was largely intact for all mutants tested while NEF activity was mostly compromised, although both activities strictly depended on the ATP-bound state, indicating different requirements for these two activities. Stable peptide substrate binding to Msi3 led to dissociation of the NBD-SBD contacts and compromised interactions with Hsp70. Taken together, our data demonstrate that the exceptionally strong NBD-SBD contacts in Hsp110s dictate the unique allosteric coupling and biochemical activities.

Abstract
Accumulating pieces of evidence showed that α-enolase (ENO1) is a multifunctional protein that plays a crucial role in a variety of pathophysiological processes. In our previous study, differential expression of ENO1 was observed in different heat-tolerance duck breeds. Here, we examined in vitro expression level of ENO1 in hepatocytes against heat stress. The mechanisms of ENO1 on cell glycolysis, growth, and its potential regulatory pathways were also analyzed. The results showed that ENO1 expression in messenger RNA and protein levels were both greatly increased in heat-treated cells compared with non-treated cells. ENO1-overexpressed cells significantly elevated cell viability and glycolysis levels. It was further shown that stably upregulated ENO1 activated focal adhesion kinase-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt and its downstream signals. In addition, the interaction between ENO1 and 70-kDa heat shock protein was detected using co-immunoprecipitation. Our research suggests that ENO1 may interact with 70-kDa heat shock protein to protect hepatocyte against heat stress through focal adhesion kinase-mediated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway.

Abstract
Hsp110s are unique and essential molecular chaperones in the eukaryotic cytosol. They play important roles in maintaining cellular protein homeostasis. Candida albicans is the most prevalent yeast opportunistic pathogen that causes fungal infections in humans. As the only Hsp110 in Candida albicans, Msi3 is essential for the growth and infection of Candida albicans. In this study, we have expressed and purified Msi3 in nucleotide-free state and carried out biochemical analyses. Sse1 is the major Hsp110 in budding yeast S. cerevisiae and the best characterized Hsp110. Msi3 can substitute Sse1 in complementing the temperature-sensitive phenotype of S. cerevisiae carrying a deletion of SSE1 gene although Msi3 shares only 63.4% sequence identity with Sse1. Consistent with this functional similarity, the purified Msi3 protein shares many similar biochemical activities with Sse1 including binding ATP with high affinity, changing conformation upon ATP binding, stimulating the nucleotide-exchange for Hsp70, preventing protein aggregation, and assisting Hsp70 in refolding denatured luciferase. These biochemical characterizations suggested that Msi3 can be used as a model for studying the molecular mechanisms of Hsp110s.

Abstract
The advancements in biotechnology over time have led to an increase in the demand of pure, soluble and functionally active proteins. Recombinant protein production has thus been employed to obtain high expression of purified proteins in bulk. E. coli is considered as the most desirable host for recombinant protein production due to its inexpensive and fast cultivation, simple nutritional requirements and known genetics. Despite all these benefits, recombinant protein production often comes with drawbacks, such as, the most common being the formation of inclusion bodies due to improper protein folding. Consequently, this can lead to the loss of the structure-function relationship of a protein. Apart from various strategies, one major strategy to resolve this issue is the use of molecular chaperones that act as folding modulators for proteins. Molecular chaperones assist newly synthesized, aggregated or misfolded proteins to fold into their native conformations. Chaperones have been widely used to improve the expression of various proteins which are otherwise difficult to produce in E. coli. Here, we discuss the structure, function, and role of major E. coli molecular chaperones in recombinant technology such as trigger factor, GroEL, DnaK and ClpB.

Abstract
The microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica is considered a promising platform for the sustainable production of high-value lipids and biofuel feedstocks. However, current lipid yields of N. oceanica are too low for economic feasibility. Gaining fundamental insights into the lipid metabolism of N. oceanica could open up various possibilities for the optimization of this species through genetic engineering. Therefore, the aim of this study was to discover novel genes associated with an elevated neutral lipid content. We constructed an insertional mutagenesis library of N. oceanica, selected high lipid mutants by five rounds of fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and identified disrupted genes using a novel implementation of a rapid genotyping procedure. One particularly promising mutant (HLM23) was disrupted in a putative APETALA2-like transcription factor gene. HLM23 showed a 40%-increased neutral lipid content, increased photosynthetic performance, and no growth impairment. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis revealed an upregulation of genes related to plastidial fatty acid biosynthesis, glycolysis and the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle in HLM23. Insights gained in this work can be used in future genetic engineering strategies for increased lipid productivity of Nannochloropsis.

Antimalarial drugs with novel modes of action and wide therapeutic potential are needed to pave the way for malaria eradication. Violacein is a natural compound known for its biological activity against cancer cells and several pathogens, including the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum (Pf). Herein, using chemical genomic profiling (CGP), we found that violacein affects protein homeostasis. Mechanistically, violacein binds Pf chaperones, PfHsp90 and PfHsp70-1, compromising the latter's ATPase and chaperone activities. Additionally, violacein-treated parasites exhibited increased protein unfolding and proteasomal degradation. The uncoupling of the parasite stress response reflects the multistage growth inhibitory effect promoted by violacein. Despite evidence of proteotoxic stress, violacein did not inhibit global protein synthesis via UPR activation-a process that is highly dependent on chaperones, in agreement with the notion of a violacein-induced proteostasis collapse. Our data highlight the importance of a functioning chaperone-proteasome system for parasite development and differentiation. Thus, a violacein-like small molecule might provide a good scaffold for development of a novel probe for examining the molecular chaperone network and/or antiplasmodial drug design.

Increased Levels of Plasma Extracellular Heat-Shock Proteins 60 and 70 kDa Characterized Early-Onset Neonatal Sepsis. Front Pediatr 2021; 9:740274. [PMID: 34900858 PMCID: PMC8660587 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2021.740274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2021] [Accepted: 11/01/2021] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Extracellular heat-shock proteins (eHsp) are highly conserved molecules that play an important role in inflammatory diseases and have been quantified in plasma from patients with infectious diseases, including sepsis. There is a constant search for dependable biochemical markers that, in combination with conventional methods, could deliver a prompt and reliable diagnosis of early-onset neonatal sepsis. Objective: We sought to assess the level of eHsp-27, eHsp-60, eHsp-70, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) in plasma of healthy neonates at term and infants with early-onset neonatal sepsis. Methods: This study included 34 newborns that were classified as healthy neonates at term (blood samples from the umbilical cord, n = 23) or infants with early-onset neonatal sepsis (blood samples obtained from umbilical artery by standard sterile procedures before starting a systemic antibiotic intervention, n = 11). All blood samples were centrifuged, and the plasma recovered to determine eHsp-27, eHsp-60, eHsp-70, and TNFα levels by ELISA. Results: Our results indicate that the level of eHsp-27 in healthy neonates at term was 0.045 ± 0.024 pg/ml. This value decreased 2.5-fold in infants with early-onset neonate sepsis (0.019 ± 0.006 pg/ml, p = 0.004). In contrast, the levels of eHsp-60 and eHsp-70 in healthy neonates at term were 13.69 ± 5.3 and 4.03 ± 2.6 pg/ml, respectively. These protein levels increased significantly 1.8- and 1.9-fold in the plasma of infants with early-onset neonatal sepsis (p ≤ 0.001). The level of TNFα in healthy neonates at term was 2.94 ± 0.46 pg/ml, with a 3.0-fold increase in infants with early-onset neonatal sepsis (8.96 ± 0.72 pm/ml, p ≤ 0.001). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of eHsp compared with that of C-reactive protein were 73.3, 60.0, 47.8, and 33.3%, respectively. Conclusion: This study demonstrated a consistent increase of eHsp-60 and eHsp-70 in the plasma of infants diagnosed with early-onset neonatal sepsis. These proteins showed higher sensitivity and specificity than C-reactive protein and blood culture test.

Abstract
Bacteria do not simply express a constitutive panel of proteins but they instead undergo dynamic changes in their protein repertoire in response to changes in nutritional status and when exposed to different environments. These differentially expressed proteins may be suitable to use for vaccine antigens if they are virulence factors. Immediately upon entry into the host organism, bacteria are exposed to a different environment, which includes changes in temperature, osmotic pressure, pH, etc. Even when an organism has already penetrated the blood or lymphatics and it then enters another organ or a cell, it can respond to these new conditions by increasing the expression of virulence factors to aid in bacterial adherence, invasion, or immune evasion. Stress response proteins such as heat shock proteins and chaperones are some of the proteins that undergo changes in levels of expression and/or changes in cellular localization from the cytosol to the cell surface or the secretome, making them potential immunogens for vaccine development. Herein we highlight literature showing that intracellular chaperone proteins GroEL and DnaK, which were originally identified as playing a role in protein folding, are relocated to the cell surface or are secreted during invasion and therefore may be recognized by the host immune system as antigens. In addition, we highlight literature showcasing the immunomodulation effects these proteins can have on the immune system, also making them potential adjuvants or immunotherapeutics.

Abstract
Molecular chaperones as specialized protein quality control enzymes form the core of cellular protein homeostasis. How chaperones selectively interact with their substrate proteins thus allocate their overall limited capacity remains poorly understood. Here, I present an integrated analysis of sequence and structural determinants that define interactions of protein domains as the basic protein folding unit with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Hsp70 Ssb. Structural homologs of single-domain proteins that differentially interact with Ssb for de novo folding were found to systematically differ in complexity of their folding landscapes, selective use of nonoptimal codons, and presence of short discriminative sequences, thus highlighting pervasive trade-offs in chaperone-assisted protein folding landscapes. However, short discriminative sequences were found to contribute by far the strongest signal toward explaining Ssb interactions. This observation suggested that some chaperone interactions may be directly programmed in the amino acid sequences rather than responding to folding challenges, possibly for regulatory advantages.

Abstract
The impact of global warming on the life of the earth is increasingly concerned. Previous studies indicated that temperature changes have a serious impact on insect sleep. Sleep is critical for animals as it has many important physiological functions. It is of great significance to study the regulation mechanism of temperature-induced sleep changes for understanding the impact of global warming on insects. More importantly, understanding how these pressures regulate sleep can provide insights into improving sleep. In this study, we found that extra sex combs (ESC) are a regulatory factor in this process. Our data showed that ESC was an upstream negative regulatory factor of Heat shock proteins (Hsps), and it could regulate sleep in mushroom and ellipsoid of Drosophila. ESC mutation exaggerates the sleep change caused by temperature, while buffering the shortening of life caused by sleep deprivation. These phenotypes can be rescued by Hsps mutants. Therefore, we concluded that the ESC buffers sleep-related stresses through regulating Hsps.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are growing in prevalence worldwide. The development of T2D increases the risk of AD disease, while AD patients can show glucose imbalance due to an increased insulin resistance. T2D and AD share similar pathological features and underlying mechanisms, including the deposition of amyloidogenic peptides in pancreatic islets (i.e., islet amyloid polypeptide; IAPP) and brain (β-Amyloid; Aβ). Both IAPP and Aβ can undergo misfolding and aggregation and accumulate in the extracellular space of their respective tissues of origin. As a main response to protein misfolding, there is evidence of the role of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in moderating T2D and AD. HSPs play a pivotal role in cell homeostasis by providing cytoprotection during acute and chronic metabolic stresses. In T2D and AD, intracellular HSP (iHSP) levels are reduced, potentially due to the ability of the cell to export HSPs to the extracellular space (eHSP). The increase in eHSPs can contribute to oxidative damage and is associated with various pro-inflammatory pathways in T2D and AD. Here, we review the role of HSP in moderating T2D and AD, as well as propose that these chaperone proteins are an important link in the relationship between T2D and AD.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are ubiquitous polypeptides expressed in all living organisms that participate in several basic cellular processes, including protein folding, from which their denomination as molecular chaperones originated. There are several HSPs, including HSPA5, also known as 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) or binding immunoglobulin protein (BIP) that is an ER resident involved in the folding of polypeptides during their translocation into this compartment prior to the transition to the Golgi network. HSPA5 is detected on the surface of cells or secreted into the extracellular environment. Surface HSPA5 has been proposed to have various roles, such as receptor-mediated signal transduction, a co-receptor for soluble ligands, as well as a participant in tumor survival, proliferation, and resistance. Recently, surface HSPA5 has been reported to be a potential receptor of some viruses, including the novel SARS-CoV-2. In spite of these observations, the association of HSPA5 within the plasma membrane is still unclear. To gain information about this process, we studied the interaction of HSPA5 with liposomes made of different phospholipids. We found that HSPA5 has a high affinity for negatively charged phospholipids, such as palmitoyl-oleoyl phosphoserine (POPS) and cardiolipin (CL). The N-terminal and C-terminal domains of HSPA5 were independently capable of interacting with negatively charged phospholipids, but to a lesser extent than the full-length protein, suggesting that both domains are required for the maximum insertion into membranes. Interestingly, we found that the interaction of HSPA5 with negatively charged liposomes promotes an oligomerization process via intermolecular disulfide bonds in which the N-terminus end of the protein plays a critical role.

Abstract
Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like chains are finely balanced by conjugating and de-conjugating enzymes. Alterations in this balance trigger the response to stress conditions and are often observed in pathologies. How such changes are detected is not well understood. We identify the HSP70 chaperone as a sensor of changes in the balance between mono- and poly-NEDDylation. Upon DNA damage, the induction of the de-NEDDylating enzyme NEDP1 restricts the formation of NEDD8 chains, mainly through lysines K11/K48. This promotes APAF1 oligomerization and apoptosis induction, a step that requires the HSP70 ATPase activity. HSP70 binds to NEDD8, and, in vitro, the conversion of NEDD8 chains into mono-NEDD8 stimulates HSP70 ATPase activity. This effect is independent of NEDD8 conjugation onto substrates. The study indicates that the NEDD8 cycle is a regulatory module of HSP70 function. These findings may be important in tumorigenesis, as we find decreased NEDP1 levels in hepatocellular carcinoma with concomitant accumulation of NEDD8 conjugates. Restriction of NEDD8 chains by NEDP1 is required for DNA damage-induced apoptosis The HSP70 chaperone is a sensor of the balance between mono- and NEDD8 chains Mono-NEDD8 stimulates HSP70 activity, which allows the formation of the apoptosome NEDP1 levels are downregulated in mouse hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs), members of molecular chaperones families fulfill essential roles under normal conditions and provide protection and adaptation during and after stress. Among different HSPs, HSP70 kDa family of proteins is most abundant and well-studied in human and mouse but has not yet been characterized in bovines. In silico analysis was performed to characterize members of HSP70 gene family in bovine genome and a total of 17 genes of bovine HSP70 gene family were identified. The members of HSP70 family were distributed over 12 chromosomes with gene size ranging from 1911 (HSPA2) to 54,017 bp (HSPA4). Five genes were intronless, while rest of 12 genes were multiexonic. Phylogenetic analysis of HSP70 gene family distinguished them into eight major evolutionary groups wherein members of group 1 were most divergent and quite dissimilar than from rest of the HSP70 sequences. Domain structure of all bovine HSP70 genes was conserved and three signature patterns HSP70_1, HSP70_2, and HSP70_3 were identified. HSPA8, HSP9, and HSPA1A showed comparatively higher expression in majority of tissues. Like humans, bovine HSP70 family was characterized by remarkable evolutionary diversity. The analysis also suggested resemblance of bovine HSP70 family to that of human compared to mouse. Overall, the study indicates the presence of diversity for structure, function, localization, and expression in the bovine HSP70 family chaperons which could form the basis to understand thermotolerance/adaptive changes in the bovines.

Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a neurological syndrome manifested by non-cancerous tumors in several organs. Mutations in either TSC1 or TSC2 tumor suppressor gene cause the disease. In the cell, TSC1 is known to form a heterodimer with TSC2 because of which an active complex is formed that negatively regulates the mTORC1 activity during cellular stress. Hence, mutation in TSC1 or TSC2 is manifested by excess proliferation of the cells leading to the development of numerous benign tumors. The TSC1 and TSC2 complex is known to interact with several protein-binding partners. One such significant interaction of this complex is with the molecular chaperone HSP70. The role of TSC1 in that interaction is still elusive. Here, we have expressed and purified TSC1 (302-420 residues) in a bacterial expression system and have shown that this region directly interacts with HSP70. We have shown that TSC1 increases the ATPase activity of Escherichia coli DnaK, a HSP70 homologue. On the contrary, TSC1 was found to show inhibitory activity toward human HSP70. Our result suggests that TSC1 (302-420 aa) shows differential interaction between the HSP70 homologues. This points toward the evolutionary significance of chaperoning system and the importance of eukaryotic tetratricopeptide repeat domain interaction motif -EEVD. Our study shows the evidence that TSC1 interacts with HSP70 and has a role to play in the chaperoning activity to maintain cellular homeostasis.

Transcriptomic analysis of female and male gonads in juvenile snakeskin gourami (Trichopodus pectoralis). Sci Rep 2020; 10:5240.

Abstract
The snakeskin gourami (Trichopodus pectoralis) exhibits sexual dimorphism, particularly in body size. Since the snakeskin gourami is usually marketed during sexual maturation, the sexual size dimorphism has become an economically important trait. Sex-biased gene expression plays a key role in phenotypic sexual dimorphism. Therefore, using high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) technology, we aimed to explore the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in ovary and testis during sex differentiation in juvenile snakeskin gourami. Our results revealed a number of DEGs were demonstrated to be overexpressed in ovary (11,625 unigenes) and testis (16,120 unigenes), and the top 10 female-biased (rdh7, dnajc25, ap1s3, zp4, polb, parp12, trim39, gucy2g, rtbs, and fdxr) and male-biased (vamp3, nbl1, dnah2, ccdc11, nr2e3, spats1, pih1d2, tekt3, fbxo36, and mybl2) DEGs were suggested to be mainly associated with ovary and testis differentiation, respectively. Additionally, using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), validation of the differential expression of 21 genes that were previously shown to be related to gonad development was performed (ar, bHLH, cyp19a1, daz, dead-end, esrb, esrrg, gnrhr, gpa, gsg1l, hsd17B, mospd1, nanos-1, nanos-2, p53, piwi-1, piwi-2, rerg, rps6ka, tgf-beta, and VgR). The results showed a significantly positive correlation (0.84; P < 0.001) between the results of RNA-seq and qRT-PCR. Therefore, RNA-seq analysis in our study identified global genes that were associated with ovary and testis differentiation in the juvenile phase of the snakeskin gourami. Our findings provide valuable transcriptomic bioinformation for further investigation of reproductive biology and applications of sex manipulation.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 70 kDa (Hsp70) plays a central role in maintaining protein homeostasis. It cooperates with cochaperone Hsp40, which stimulates Hsp70 ATPase activity and presents protein substrates to Hsp70 to assist refolding. The mechanism by which Hsp40 regulates the intramolecular and intermolecular changes of Hsp70 is still largely unknown. Here, by bulk and single-molecule FRET, we report the conformational dynamics of Hsp70 and its regulation by Hsp40 as well as the kinetics of the multistep Hsp70–Hsp40 functional cycle. We show that Hsp40 modulates the conformations of ATP-bound Hsp70 to a domain-undocked ATPase-stimulated state, and facilitates the formation of a heterotetrameric Hsp70–Hsp40 complex. Our findings provide insights into the functional mechanism of this core chaperone machinery. Hsp70 is a conserved molecular chaperone that plays an indispensable role in regulating protein folding, translocation, and degradation. The conformational dynamics of Hsp70 and its regulation by cochaperones are vital to its function. Using bulk and single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET) techniques, we studied the interdomain conformational distribution of human stress-inducible Hsp70A1 and the kinetics of conformational changes induced by nucleotide and the Hsp40 cochaperone Hdj1. We found that the conformations between and within the nucleotide- and substrate-binding domains show heterogeneity. The conformational distribution in the ATP-bound state can be induced by Hdj1 to form an “ADP-like” undocked conformation, which is an ATPase-stimulated state. Kinetic measurements indicate that Hdj1 binds to monomeric Hsp70 as the first step, then induces undocking of the two domains and closing of the substrate-binding cleft. Dimeric Hdj1 then facilitates dimerization of Hsp70 and formation of a heterotetrameric Hsp70–Hsp40 complex. Our results provide a kinetic view of the conformational cycle of Hsp70 and reveal the importance of the dynamic nature of Hsp70 for its function.

Abstract
The Hsp70 family of heat shock proteins plays a critical function in maintaining cellular homeostasis within various subcellular compartments. The human mitochondrial Hsp70 (HSPA9) has been associated with cellular death, senescence, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, which is the rational for the name mortalin. It is well documented that mortalin, such as other Hsp70s, is prone to self-aggregation, which is related to mitochondria biogenesis failure. Here, we investigated the assembly, structure and function of thermic aggregates/oligomers of recombinant human mortalin and Hsp70-1A (HSPA1A). Summarily, both Hsp70 thermic aggregates have characteristics of supramolecular assemblies. They display characteristic organized structures and partial ATPase activity, despite their nanometric size. Indeed, we observed that the interaction of these aggregates/oligomers with liposomes is similar to monomeric Hsp70s and, finally, they were non-toxic over neuroblastoma cells. These findings revealed that high molecular mass oligomers of mortalin and Hsp70-1A preserved some of the fundamental functions of these proteins.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is still a global health problem. Current T2DM treatments are limited to curing the symptoms and have not been able to restore insulin sensitivity in insulin-sensitive tissues that have become resistant. In the past decade, some studies have shown the significant role of a chaperone family, heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), in insulin resistance pathogenesis that leads to T2DM. HSP70 is a cytoprotective molecular chaperone that functions in protein folding and degradation. In general, studies have shown that decreased concentration of HSP70 is able to induce inflammation process through JNK activation, inhibit fatty acid oxidation by mitochondria through mitophagy decrease and mitochondrial biogenesis, as well as activate SREBP-1c, one of the lipogenic gene transcription factors in ER stress. The overall molecular pathways are potentially leading to insulin resistance and T2DM. Increased expression of HSP70 in brain tissues is able to improve insulin sensitivity and glycemic control specifically. HSP70 modulation-targeting strategies (including long-term physical exercise, hot tub therapy (HTT), and administration of alfalfa-derived HSP70 (aHSP70)) in subjects with insulin resistance are proven to have therapeutic and preventive potency that are promising in T2DM management.

Abstract
The role of mitochondria within a cell has grown beyond being the prime source of cellular energy to one of the major signaling platforms. Recent evidence provides several insights into the crucial roles of mitochondrial chaperones in regulating the organellar response to external triggers. The mitochondrial Hsp70 (mtHsp70/Mortalin/Grp75) chaperone system plays a critical role in the maintenance of proteostasis balance in the organelle. Defects in mtHsp70 network result in attenuated protein transport and misfolding of polypeptides leading to mitochondrial dysfunction. The functions of Hsp70 are primarily governed by J-protein cochaperones. Although human mitochondria possess a single Hsp70, its multifunctionality is characterized by the presence of multiple specific J-proteins. Several studies have shown a potential association of Hsp70 and J-proteins with diverse pathological states that are not limited to their canonical role as chaperones. The role of mitochondrial Hsp70 and its co-chaperones in disease pathogenesis has not been critically reviewed in recent years. We evaluated some of the cellular interfaces where Hsp70 machinery associated with pathophysiological conditions, particularly in context of tumorigenesis and neurodegeneration. The mitochondrial Hsp70 machinery shows a variable localization and integrates multiple components of the cellular processes with varied phenotypic consequences. Although Hsp70 and J-proteins function synergistically in proteins folding, their precise involvement in pathological conditions is mainly idiosyncratic. This machinery is associated with a heterogeneous set of molecules during the progression of a disorder. However, the precise binding to the substrate for a specific physiological response under a disease subtype is still an undocumented area of analysis.

Abstract
The mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of 11 lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) produced by mutations in the enzymes involved in the lysosomal catabolism of glycosaminoglycans. Most of the mutations affecting these enzymes may lead to changes in processing, folding, glycosylation, pH stability, protein aggregation, and defective transport to the lysosomes. It this sense, it has been proposed that the use of small molecules, called pharmacological chaperones (PCs), can restore the folding, trafficking, and biological activity of mutated enzymes. PCs have the advantages of wide tissue distribution, potential oral administration, lower production cost, and fewer issues of immunogenicity than enzyme replacement therapy. In this paper, we will review the advances in the identification and characterization of PCs for the MPS. These molecules have been described for MPS II, IVA, and IVB, showing a mutation-dependent enhancement of the mutated enzymes. Although the results show the potential of this strategy, further studies should focus in the development of disease-specific cellular models that allow a proper screening and evaluation of PCs. In addition, in vivo evaluation, both pre-clinical and clinical, should be performed, before they can become a real therapeutic strategy for the treatment of MPS patients.

Abstract
Plants maintain cellular proteostasis during different phases of growth and development despite a barrage of biotic and abiotic stressors in an ever-changing environment. This requires a collaborative effort of a cadre of molecular chaperones. Hsp70s and their obligate co-chaperones, J-domain proteins (JDPs), are arguably the most ubiquitous and formidable components of the cellular chaperone network, facilitating numerous and diverse cellular processes and allowing survival under a plethora of stressful conditions. JDPs are also among the most versatile chaperones. Compared to Hsp70s, the number of JDP-encoding genes has proliferated, suggesting the emergence of highly complex Hsp70-JDP networks, particularly in plants. Recent studies indicate that besides the increase in the number of JDP encoding genes; regulatory differences, neo- and sub-functionalization, and inter- and intra-class combinatorial interactions, is rapidly expanding the repertoire of Hsp70-JDP systems. This results in highly robust and functionally diverse chaperone networks in plants. Here, we review the current status of plant JDP research and discuss how the paradigm shift in the field can be exploited toward a better understanding of JDP function and evolution.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins of 70 kDa (Hsp70s) are ubiquitous and highly conserved molecular chaperones. They play multiple essential roles in assisting with protein folding and maintaining protein homeostasis. Their chaperone activity has been proposed to require several rounds of binding to and release of polypeptide substrates at the substrate-binding domain (SBD) of Hsp70s. All available structures have revealed a single substrate-binding site in the SBD that binds a single segment of an extended polypeptide of 3-4 residues. However, this well-established single peptide-binding site alone has made it difficult to explain the efficient chaperone activity of Hsp70s. In this study, using purified proteins and site-directed mutagenesis, along with fluorescence polarization and luciferase-refolding assays, we report the unexpected discovery of a second peptide-binding site in Hsp70s. More importantly, the biochemical analyses suggested that this novel binding site, named here P2, is essential for Hsp70 chaperone activity. Furthermore, cross-linking and mutagenesis studies indicated that this second binding site is in the SBD adjacent to the first binding site. Taken together, our results suggest that these two essential binding sites of Hsp70s cooperate in protein folding.

Abstract
NLRC4 [nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat (NLR) family, caspase recruitment domain (CARD) containing 4] is an innate immune receptor, which, upon detection of certain pathogens or internal distress signals, initiates caspase-1-mediated interleukin-1β maturation and an inflammatory response. A gain-of-function mutation, H443P in NLRC4, causes familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS) characterized by cold-induced hyperactivation of caspase-1, enhanced interleukin-1β maturation, and inflammation. Although the H443P mutant shows constitutive activity, the mechanism involved in hyperactivation of caspase-1 by NLRC4-H443P upon exposure of cells to lower temperature is not known. Here, we show that heat shock cognate protein 70 (HSC70) complexes with NLRC4 and negatively regulates caspase-1 activation by NLRC4-H443P in human cells. Compared with NLRC4, the structurally altered NLRC4-H443P shows enhanced interaction with HSC70. Nucleotide binding- and leucine-rich repeat domains of NLRC4, but not its CARD, can engage in complex formation with HSC70. Knockdown of HSC70 enhances apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC)-speck formation and caspase-1 activation by NLRC4-H443P. Exposure to subnormal temperature results in reduced interaction of NLRC4-H443P with HSC70, and an increase in its ability to form ASC specks and activate caspase-1. Unlike the NLRC4-H443P mutant, another constitutively active mutant (NLRC4-V341A) associated with autoinflammatory diseases, but not FCAS, showed neither enhanced interaction with HSC70 nor an increase in inflammasome formation upon exposure to subnormal temperature. Our results identify HSC70 as a negative regulator of caspase-1 activation by the temperature-sensitive NLRC4-H443P mutant. We also show that low-temperature-induced hyperactivation of caspase-1 by NLRC4-H443P is due to loss of inhibition by HSC70.

Abstract
As one of the most abundant and highly conserved molecular chaperones, the 70-kDa heat shock proteins (Hsp70s) play a key role in maintaining cellular protein homeostasis (proteostasis), one of the most fundamental tasks for every living organism. In this role, Hsp70s are inextricably linked to many human diseases, most notably cancers and neurodegenerative diseases, and are increasingly recognized as important drug targets for developing novel therapeutics for these diseases. Hsp40s are a class of essential and universal partners for Hsp70s in almost all aspects of proteostasis. Thus, Hsp70s and Hsp40s together constitute one of the most important chaperone systems across all kingdoms of life. In recent years, we have witnessed significant progress in understanding the molecular mechanism of this chaperone system through structural and functional analysis. This review will focus on this recent progress, mainly from a structural perspective.

Abstract
The heat shock 70 (Hsp70) family of molecular chaperones plays a central role in maintaining cellular proteostasis. Structurally, Hsp70s are composed of an N-terminal nucleotide binding domain (NBD) which exhibits ATPase activity, and a C-terminal substrate binding domain (SBD). The binding of ATP at the NBD and its subsequent hydrolysis influences the substrate binding affinity of the SBD through allostery. Similarly, peptide binding at the C-terminal SBD stimulates ATP hydrolysis by the N-terminal NBD. Interdomain communication between the NBD and SBD is facilitated by a conserved linker segment. Hsp70s form two main subgroups. Canonical Hsp70 members generally suppress protein aggregation and are also capable of refolding misfolded proteins. Hsp110 members are characterized by an extended lid segment and their function tends to be largely restricted to suppression of protein aggregation. In addition, the latter serve as nucleotide exchange factors (NEFs) of canonical Hsp70s. The linker of the Hsp110 family is less conserved compared to that of the canonical Hsp70 group. In addition, the linker plays a crucial role in defining the functional features of these two groups of Hsp70. Generally, the linker of Hsp70 is quite small and varies in size from seven to thirteen residues. Due to its small size, any sequence variation that Hsp70 exhibits in this motif has a major and unique influence on the function of the protein. Based on sequence data, we observed that canonical Hsp70s possess a linker that is distinct from similar segments present in Hsp110 proteins. In addition, Hsp110 linker motifs from various genera are distinct suggesting that their unique features regulate the flexibility with which the NBD and SBD of these proteins communicate via allostery. The Hsp70 linker modulates various structure-function features of Hsp70 such as its global conformation, affinity for peptide substrate and interaction with co-chaperones. The current review discusses how the unique features of the Hsp70 linker accounts for the functional specialization of this group of molecular chaperones.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSP) regulate inflammation in many physiological contexts. However, inflammation is a broad process, involving numerous cytokines produced by different molecular pathways with multiple functions. In this review, we focused on the particular role of HSP on the inflammasomes intracellular platforms activated by danger signals and that enable activation of inflammatory caspases, mainly caspase-1, leading to the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β. Interestingly, some members of the HSP family favor inflammasomes activation whereas others inhibit it, suggesting that HSP modulators for therapeutic purposes, must be carefully chosen.

Abstract
Photoreceptors have high metabolic demands and age rapidly, undermining visual function. We base our understanding mainly on ageing mice where elevated inflammation, extracellular deposition, including that of amyloid beta, and rod and cone photoreceptor loss occur, but cones are not lost in ageing primate although their function declines, revealing that primate and mouse age differently. We examine ageing primate retinae and show elevated stress but low inflammation. However, aged primates have a >70% reduction in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and a decrease in cytochrome c oxidase. There is a shift in cone mitochondrial positioning and glycolytic activity increases. Bruch’s membrane thickens but unlike in mice, amyloid beta is absent. Hence, reduced ATP may explain cone functional decline in ageing but their retained presence offers the possibility of functional restoration if they can be fuelled appropriately to restore cellular function. This is important because as humans we largely depend on cone function to see and are rarely fully dark adapted. Presence of limited aged inflammation and amyloid beta deposition question some of the therapeutic approaches taken to resolve problems of retinal ageing in humans and the possible lack of success in clinical trials in macular degeneration that have targeted inflammatory agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High temperature is a major environmental stress that limits plant growth and agriculture productivity. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are highly conserved serine and threonine protein kinases that participate in response to diverse environmental stresses in plants. A total of 16 putative SlMAPK genes are identified in tomato, and SlMAPK3 is one of the most extensively studied SlMAPKs. However, the role of SlMAPK3 in response to heat stress is not clearly understood in tomato plants. In this study, we performed functional analysis of SlMAPK3 for its possible role in response to heat stress. RESULTS qRT-PCR analyses revealed that SlMAPK3 relative expression was depressed by heat stress. Here, wild-type (WT) tomato plants and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated slmapk3 mutant lines (L8 and L13) were used to investigate the function of SlMAPK3 in response to heat stress. Compared with WT plants, slmapk3 mutants exhibited less severe wilting and less membrane damage, showed lower reactive oxygen species (ROS) contents, and presented higher both activities and transcript levels of antioxidant enzymes, as well as elevated expressions of genes encoding heat stress transcription factors (HSFs) and heat shock proteins (HSPs). CONCLUSIONS CRISPR/Cas9-mediated slmapk3 mutants exhibited more tolerance to heat stress than WT plants, suggesting that SlMAPK3 was a negative regulator of thermotolerance. Moreover, antioxidant enzymes and HSPs/HSFs genes expression were involved in SlMAPK3-mediated heat stress response in tomato plants.

Abstract
Misfolded proteins compromise cellular homeostasis. This is especially problematic in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which is a high-capacity protein-folding compartment and whose function requires stringent protein quality-control systems. Multiprotein complexes in the ER are able to identify, remove, ubiquitinate, and deliver misfolded proteins to the 26S proteasome for degradation in the cytosol, and these events are collectively termed ER-associated degradation, or ERAD. Several steps in the ERAD pathway are facilitated by molecular chaperone networks, and the importance of ERAD is highlighted by the fact that this pathway is linked to numerous protein conformational diseases. In this review, we discuss the factors that constitute the ERAD machinery and detail how each step in the pathway occurs. We then highlight the underlying pathophysiology of protein conformational diseases associated with ERAD.

Abstract
Fes1 is a conserved armadillo repeat-containing Hsp70 nucleotide exchange factor important for growth at high temperature, proteasomal protein degradation and prion propagation. Depleting or mutating Fes1 induces a stress response and causes defects in these processes that are ascribed solely to disruption of Fes1 regulation of Hsp70. Here, we find Fes1 was essential for degradation of gluconeogenic enzymes by the vacuole import and degradation (Vid) pathway and for cell wall integrity (CWI), which is crucial for growth at high temperature. Unexpectedly, Fes1 mutants defective in physical or functional interaction with Hsp70 retained activities that support Vid and CWI. Fes1 and the Fes1 mutants bound to the Vid substrate Fbp1 in vitro and captured Slt2, a signaling kinase that regulates CWI, from cell lysates. Our data show that the armadillo domain of Fes1 binds proteins other than Hsp70, that Fes1 has important Hsp70-independent roles in the cell, and that major growth defects caused by depleting Fes1 are due to loss of these functions rather than to loss of Hsp70 regulation. We uncovered diverse functions of Fes1 beyond its defined role in regulating Hsp70, which points to possible multi-functionality among its conserved counterparts in other organisms or organelles. Fes1, a yeast homolog of human nucleotide exchange factor HspBP1, binds and regulates Hsp70, a universally conserved protein that helps maintain health of proteins in cells. Fes1 is believed to function only by helping Hsp70 release ADP and substrates and cells lacking Fes1 are sick. We find Fes1 is essential for protein degradation by a vacuolar pathway (Vid) and for cell wall integrity (CWI), and it interacts with a Vid substrate and a regulator of CWI. Fes1 mutants that cannot regulate Hsp70 can still support Vid and CWI, interact with proteins involved in these processes and restore cell health. Thus, Fes1 binds proteins other than Hsp70 and has important functions beyond regulating Hsp70 that are needed for optimal cell fitness.

Phylogenomics suggests oxygen availability as a driving force in Thaumarchaeota evolution. ISME JOURNAL 2019; 13:2150-2161.

Abstract
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are widespread in marine and terrestrial habitats, playing a major role in the global nitrogen cycle. However, their evolutionary history remains unexplored, which limits our understanding of their adaptation mechanisms. Here, our comprehensive phylogenomic tree of Thaumarchaeota supports three sequential events: origin of AOA from terrestrial non-AOA ancestors, colonization of the shallow ocean, and expansion to the deep ocean. Careful molecular dating suggests that these events coincided with the Great Oxygenation Event around 2300 million years ago (Mya), and oxygenation of the shallow and deep ocean around 800 and 635-560 Mya, respectively. The first transition was likely enabled by the gain of an aerobic pathway for energy production by ammonia oxidation and biosynthetic pathways for cobalamin and biotin that act as cofactors in aerobic metabolism. The first transition was also accompanied by the loss of dissimilatory nitrate and sulfate reduction, loss of oxygen-sensitive pyruvate oxidoreductase, which reduces pyruvate to acetyl-CoA, and loss of the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway for anaerobic carbon fixation. The second transition involved gain of a K+ transporter and of the biosynthetic pathway for ectoine, which may function as an osmoprotectant. The third transition was accompanied by the loss of the uvr system for repairing ultraviolet light-induced DNA lesions. We conclude that oxygen availability drove the terrestrial origin of AOA and their expansion to the photic and dark oceans, and that the stressors encountered during these events were partially overcome by gene acquisitions from Euryarchaeota and Bacteria, among other sources.

Abstract
As a polyphagous insect, little is known at the molecular level about the effects of different host plants on physiological changes in Phenacoccus solenopsis. In this study, four heat shock protein (Hsp) genes (PsHsp60, PsHsp70, PsHsp90, and PsHsp20.7) were identified from the transcriptome of P. solenopsis. Analysis of Hsp expression levels revealed significant differences in Hsp gene expression levels in P. solenopsis fed on different host plants. In host conversion tests, the expression levels of PsHsp90 and PsHsp60 were upregulated after transfer of second instar nymphs from tomato to cotton. The expression levels of PsHsp70 and PsHsp20.7 were, respectively, significantly upregulated at 9 and 48 hr after transfer from tomato to Hibiscus. The results of this study aid molecular characterization and understanding of the expression patterns of Hsp genes during different developmental stages and host transfer of P. solenopsis.

Abstract
In this report, we investigated the protective function of co-enzyme Q10 on chicken hearts during in vivo heat stress (HS) and the relationship with Hsp70 expression. The concentration of co-enzyme Q10 (Q10) in the serum indicated that Q10 exogenously added prior HS was fully absorbed by chickens and is maintained at high levels during HS. The level of heart and oxidative damage-associated enzymes in the serum revealed that treatment with Q10 decreased the activity of CK-MB, CK, and LDH compared with the HS group; moreover, oxidative injury was also alleviated by Q10 according to the level of SOD, MDA, and T-AOC in the serum compared with HS group during heat stress. A pathological examination indicated that the chicken hearts suffered serious damage during HS, including hemorrhage, granular changes, karyopyknosis, and cardiac muscle fiber disorder; however, the extent of heart damage was reduced in HS + Q10 group. Our results indicated that the addition of Q10 could upregulate the expression of Hsp70 during HS compared with the HS group. Compared with the HS group, the addition of Q10 significantly increased the gene expression of hsf1 during HS and hsf3 at 5 h of HS. The expression of hsf2 and hsf4 was not influenced by HS. Q10 could only accelerate the trimerization of HSF1 as well binding activities to Hsp70 HSE according to native page and ChIP assays. These findings suggest that co-enzyme Q10 can protect chicken hearts from in vivo HS by inducing HSF1 binding activity and Hsp70 expression.
