Heat shock protein (HSP) 70, the highly conserved stress protein families, plays important roles in protecting cells against heat and other stresses in most animal species. In the present study, we identified and characterized four Hsp70 (RuHSP4, RuHSC70, RuHSP12A, RuGRP78) family proteins based on the expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis of the Korean rose bitterling R. uyekii cDNA library. The deduced RuHSP70 family has high amino acid identities of 72-99% with those of other species. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that RuHsp70 family clustered with fish groups (HSP4, HSC70, HSP12A, GRP78) proteins. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed the specific expression patterns of RuHsp70 family members in the early developmental stages and several tissues in Korean rose bitterling. The expression of 4 groups of Hsp70 family was detected in all tested tissue. Particularly, Hsp70 family of Korean rose bitterling is highly expressed in hepatopancreas and sexual gonad (testis and ovary). The expression of Hsp70 family was differentially regulated in accordance with early development stage of Rhodeus uyekii.

This study examined the expression of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) in red seabream Pagrus major infected by the, acanthocephalan parasites Longicollum pagrosomi. We cloned the full-length Hsp70 cDNA from the liver of the red seabream. The full-length cDNA had a 1,950 bp open reading frame (ORF) that encoded a protein of 650 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of Hsp70 contained all of the conserved Hsp70 family signature sequences and an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)/guanosine triphosphate (GTP) binding motif, including the EEVD (consensus sequence that terminates in Hsp70 family) consensus sequence. The expression of Hsp70 mRNA was upregulated int the fish head-kidney and liver, as determined by quantitative real-time PCR. We quantified the Hsp70 mRNA expression in normal red seabream and fish infected fish by L. pagrosomi. The expression of Hsp70 mRNA was significantly higher in the infected red seabream. These results suggest that Hsp70 play a role of protection against stress and inflammation caused by the parasite and may help maintain homeostasis.

한국의 고급 양식대상 어종인 붉바리(Epinephelus akaara)로부터 새로운 heat shock protein (Hsp) 70을 동정하였다. 붉바리 Hsp70 (RgHsp70)의 cDNA는 RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA ends)법을 사용하였고, RgHsp70 cDNA의 전장은 2,152 bp이고, 5'-terminal untranslated region (UTR)은 105 bp, 3'-terminal UTR은 274 bp, 590개의 아미노산을 암호화하는 open reading frame (ORF)는 1,773 bp였으며, 분자무게(molecular weight)는 64.9 kDa 및 등전위값(isoelectric point, pI)은 5.2였다. 추정되는 아미노산 비교 및 계통발생학적 분석 결과, 다른 어종과 마찬가지로 Hsp70 고유의 signature를 포함하는 것을 비롯하여 높은 유사성을 나타내었으므로 RgHsp70이 Hsp70 family임을 확인할 수 있었다 RgHsp70 mRNA는 간과 두신 조직에서 높은 발현을 보였으며, 48시간 동안 수온별(21, 18, 15 및 $12^{\circ}C$) 노출 후 간 조직에서 대조구인 $21^{\circ}C$보다 $12^{\circ}C$에서 발현이 증가함을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는, 수온이 하강함에 따라 RgHsp70 mRNA 발현에 주요한 영향을 미치는 것으로 보아, 수온변화에 따른 스트레스로 인해 발현의 변화를 나타내는 주요 스트레스성 단백질임을 확인할 수 있었다.

생명체 내에서 일어나는 거의 모든 반응은 단백질이 촉진하거나 수행한다. 단백질은 세포질과 소포체에서 합성될 때 엄격하게 조절된다. 그러나, 새로이 합성된 모든 단백질이 살아남아서 생명을 유지시키는 기능에 관여하게 되지는 않는다. 가장 알맞은 생리학적 in vitro 실험 조건에서 새로이 합성된 단백질의 약 3분의 1 정도는 합성되자마자 proteasome에 의해 빠르게 분해된다고 보고되었다. 또한, 단백질은 합성이 성공적으로 이루어진 이후에는 3차원 구조를 갖기 위해 접힘(folding)이 이루어져야 하고, subunit들은 assembly 과정을 거쳐야 비로소 성숙된 단백질로서 기능을 하게 된다. 어떤 단백질군은 자연적으로 접힘이 일어나는 반면 어떤 단백질군은 분자 샤페론(molecular chaperones)과 folding enzymes의 도움을 받아야만 접힘이 일어난다. 분자 샤페론은 세포 전역에 분포하고 있으며, 세균에서부터 고등 동식물에 이르기까지 모든 생명체에 존재한다. 이들 중 Hsp70군은 많이 연구된 분자 샤페론으로서 지난 10여년 동안 조절인자들이 새로이 발견되어 작용 mechanism이 보다 자세히 밝혀졌다. 본 총설에서 Hsp70군과 그 조절인자들에 대한 전반적인 서술을 하였으며, 이들의 기능이 분자 샤페론 기능 외에 생체 내에서 중요한 기능들이 새롭게 밝혀지고 있어 이들의 작용 mechanism을 조명함으로 이해를 돕고자 한다.

The specific pair of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) and Hsp40 constitutes an essential molecular chaperone system involved in numerous cellular processes, including the proper folding/refolding and transport of proteins. Hsp40 family members are characterized by the presence of a conserved J-domain (JD) that functions as a co-chaperone of Hsp70. Tumorous imaginal disc 1 (Tid1) is a tumor suppressor protein belonging to the DNAJA3 subfamily of Hsp40 and functions as a co-chaperone of the mitochondrial Hsp70, mortalin. In this work, we performed nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to determine the solution structure of JD and its interaction with the glycine/phenylalanine-rich region (GF-motif) of human Tid1. Notably, Tid1-JD, whose conformation was consistent with that of the DNAJB1 JD, appeared to stably interact with its subsequent GF-motif region. Collectively with our sequence analysis, the present results demonstrate that the functional and regulatory mode of Tid1 resembles that of the DNAJB1 subfamily members rather than DNAJA1 or DNAJA2 subfamily proteins. Therefore, it is suggested that an allosteric interaction between mortalin and Tid1 is involved in the mitochondrial Hsp70/Hsp40 chaperone system.

The cytosolic members of the HSP70 family of proteins play key roles in the molecular chaperone machinery of the cell. In the study we cloned and sequenced the full-length cDNA of Delia antiqua HSP70 gene, which is 2461 bp long and encodes 643 a.a. with a calculated molecular mass of 70,787 Da. We investigated gene copies of cytosolic HSP70 members of 4 insect species with complete genome available, and found that they are quite variable with species. In order to characterize this protein we carried out an alignment and a phylogenetic analysis with 41 complete protein sequences from insects. The analysis divided the cytosolic members of the family into two classes, HSP70 and HSC70, distinguishable on the basis of 15 residues. HSP70 class members were slightly shorter in length and smaller in molecular mass relative to the HSC70 class members, and the conservative and functional regions in these sequences were documented. Mainly, we investigated the expression of Delia antiqua HSP70 gene, in response to diapauses and thermal stresses. Both summer and winter diapauses elevated HSP70 transcript levels. Cold-stress led to increased HSP70 expression levels in summer- and winter-diapausing pupae, but heat-stress elevated the levels only in the winter-diapausing pupae. In all cases, the expression levels, after being elevated, gradually decreased with time. HSP70 expression was low in non-diapausing pupae but was up-regulated following cold- and heat-stresses. Heat-stress gradually increased the mRNA level with time whereas cold-stress gradually decreased levels after an initial increase.

Hsp70, a 70 kDa protein, is the maior protein expressed when cells are heat-shocked. A cDNA library from mouse ID13 cells was screened with the human hsp70 gene as a probe, and a positive clone was obtained. The positive clone was subcloned into puc19 and the precise restriction was obtained. The CDNA was sequenced by the Sanger's dideoxv termination method. Single open reading frame that codes for a protein of 70 kDa was found. The DNA sequence of the cloned mouse DNA shows great homology (66-90%) with other mouse hsp70 genes and somewhat less homology (50",) with E. coli hsp70 gene (dnak). With the exception of one amino acid, the protein sequence deduced from the CDNA is identical to the mouse that shock cognate protein 70 (hsc70) that is constitutivelv expressed at normal temperature. The result suggests that the cloned CDNA encodes a hsc70 family rather than a heatinducible family.mily.

Objective: In tropical, subtropical and arid zones, heat stress is the main cause of productivity reduction in cattle. When climate stressors occur, animals become thermal adapted through differential expression of some genes, including heat shock proteins (HSP) family. The aim of this study was to determine levels of expression of HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90 genes in Simmental cattle raised in tropical environments of Mexico. Methods: In this study, expression of HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90 genes was analyzed in 116 Simmental cattle from three farms with tropical climate located in western Mexico. Animals were sampled twice a day, in the morning and noon. Gene expression was evaluated by quantitative polymerase chain reaction using probes marked with fluorescence. The MIXED procedure of SAS with repeated measures was used for all statistical analysis. Results: HSP60 gene expression differences were found for sex (p = 0.0349). HSP70 gene differences were detected for sampling hour (p = 0.0042), farm (p<0.0001), sex (p = 0.0476), and the interaction sampling hour×farm (p = 0.0002). Gene expression differences for HSP90 were observed for farm (p<0.0001) and year (p = 0.0521). HSP70 gene showed to be a better marker of heat stress than HSP60 and HSP90 genes. Conclusion: Expression of HSP70 gene in Simmental herds of the tropical region of western México was different during early morning and noon, but the expression of the HSP60 and HSP90 genes was similar. Identification of resilient animals to heat stress will be useful in the genetic improvement of the Simmental breed.

열충격단백질 70 (HSP70)은 복수유전자족으로서 통상적으로 표현되는 Hsc70와 스트레스에 의하여 유도되는 Hsp70가 있다. 포유동물의 신경계통에서는 상당한 량의 HSP70가 정상조건에서도 표현되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 흰쥐의 소뇌 세포의 연접에서 Hsp70의 표현에 대한 연구를 하였다. 면역조직화학적으로 소뇌절편을 염색하여 관찰한 결과 Hsp70와 Hsc70 모두 표현되었는데, 소뇌 조롱박세포에서 가장 강하게 표현되었으며, 다음으로 소뇌 과립세포에서 강하게 표현되었다. 또한 깊은소뇌핵의 신경세포들도 강하게 염색되었다. 배양한 P1 소뇌신경 세포를 Hsp70 항체로 염색한 결과 Hsp70는 조롱박세포와 과립 세포에서 모두 표현되었으며, 세포체와 가지돌기를 따라 점박이를 형성하였다. 이들 점 박이들은 PSD95 점박이와 같이 위치하였다. 그리고 PSD 분획을 이용한 면역염색에서도 PSD70이 검출되었다. 본 연구결과는 Hsp70이 정상조건에서도 소뇌신경세포의 연접에 존재함을 의미한다.

열충격 단백질(hsp)은 세포의 기능에 중요한 역할을 하는 보존성이 높은 단백질중의 하나이다. 이들 중 70 kDa 열충격 단백질은 외부의 자극과 관계없이 상시적으로 합성되는 HSC70 단백질과 외부의 자극에 반응하여 합성되는 HSP70 단백질이 있다. 본 연구에서는 넙치(Paralichthys olivaceus)의 70 kDa 열충격 단백질에 대한 cDNA를 아미노산 서열로 변환시켜 분석함으로써 이 유전자가 상시적으로 발현하는 열충격 단백질인 HSC70에 대한 유전자임을 밝혔다. Hsp70 유전자의 발현 기작을 조사하기 위하여 단백질 발현을 조절하는 5' 인접부위를 분리하고 이들의 염기서열을 분석함으로써 유전자 조절부위의 중요인자와 중심 부위를 동정하였다. 또한 Hsp70 유전자의 유전자 조절부위를 이용하여 형광단백질 발현벡터를 제작한 후 메다카 수정란에 미세 주입하여 배 발생 과정의 살아있는 메다카에서 발현하는 형광 단백질(GFP)의 발현을 조사하였다.
