1. CspB of an arctic bacterium, Polaribacter irgensii KOPRI 22228, confers extraordinary freeze-tolerance
ABSTRACT Freezing temperatures are a major challenge for life at the poles. Decreased membrane fluidity, uninvited secondary structure formation in nucleic acids, and protein cold-denaturation all occur at cold temperatures. Organisms adapted to polar regions possess distinct mechanisms that enable them to survive in extremely cold environments. Among the co

2. Identificação e caracterização de genes codificantes de proteínas ricas em glicina ligantes de RNA em soja (Glycine max (L.) Merril)
Molecular information on plant developmental process, as well as detailed knowledge of the interaction between stress conditions and plant response to environmental factors are essential for understanding the adaptive response. Glycine-Rich Proteins (GRP) have the amino acid glycine well represented in their primary structure. The genes encoding GRPs are dev

3. Análise do papel do gene cspC de Caulobacter crescentus e de sua regulação. / Study of the role cspC gene from Caulobacter crescentus and its regulation.
The cold shock response in bacteria involves the expression of cold shock proteins (CSPs), which destabilize secondary structures on mRNAs, allowing their translation. Caulobacter crescentus possesses four genes encoding CSPs: cspA and cspB are induced upon cold shock, while cspC and cspD are induced at stationary phase. In this work, a new sequence for the

4. Estudo in silico de genes que codificam fatores de transcriÃÃo responsivos Ãseca, salinidade e congelamento nos genomas do eucalipto, cana e arroz
Abiotic stresses are the most responsable for causing changes in plant growth and development. The plants, in counterpart, make use of a variety of responses in order to maintain their metabolic and physiological processes. One of the main plants responses to environmental conditions alterations is the additional regulation of expression. Moreover, the biosy

5. PRECONDITIONING OF ORGAN DONORS WITH LOW LEVELS OF CARBON MONOXIDE REDUCES GRAFT IMMUNOGENICITY AND IMPROVES LONGTERM ALLOGRAFT FUNCTION
Background: Chronic rejection remains the major obstacle for successful transplantation, and to date there is no effective treatment. Events occurring prior to organ transplantation such as brain death, harvesting procedure, and ischemia-reperfusion injury lead to unspecific inflammatory damages danger signals - that increase graft immunogenicity and reduce

6. Changes in nuclear phenotypes following cold shock in Panstrongylus megistus (Burmeister)
The nuclear phenotypes of Malpighian tubule epithelial cells of 5th instar male nymphs of the blood-sucking insect Panstrongylus megistus were studied immediately after a short (1 h) cold shock at 0ºC, and 10 and 30 days later. The objective was to compare the responses to a cold shock with those known to occur after hyperthermia in order to provide insight

7. The role of the 5'-end untranslated region of the mRNA for CspA, the major cold-shock protein of Escherichia coli, in cold-shock adaptation.
During cellular adaptation to low temperature, Escherichia coli transiently synthesizes the major cold-shock protein CspA. It was found that adaptation to cold shock is blocked when the 143-base sequence of the 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) of the cspA mRNA is overproduced. The overproduction of this UTR at 15 degrees C caused the synthesis of not only Csp

8. CspA, CspB, and CspG, Major Cold Shock Proteins of Escherichia coli, Are Induced at Low Temperature under Conditions That Completely Block Protein Synthesis
CspA, CspB, and CspG, the major cold shock proteins of Escherichia coli, are dramatically induced upon temperature downshift. In this report, we examined the effects of kanamycin and chloramphenicol, inhibitors of protein synthesis, on cold shock inducibility of these proteins. Cell growth was completely blocked at 37°C in the presence of kanamycin (100 μg

9. Complementation of Cold Shock Proteins by Translation Initiation Factor IF1 In Vivo
The cold shock response in both Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis is induced by an abrupt downshift in growth temperature and leads to a dramatic increase in the production of a homologous class of small, often highly acidic cold shock proteins. This protein family is the prototype of the cold shock domain (CSD) that is conserved from bacteria to humans

10. Cold Shock Response in Sporulating Bacillus subtilis and Its Effect on Spore Heat Resistance
Cold shock and ethanol and puromycin stress responses in sporulating Bacillus subtilis cells have been investigated. We show that a total of 13 proteins are strongly induced after a short cold shock treatment of sporulating cells. The cold shock pretreatment affected the heat resistance of the spores formed subsequently, with spores heat killed at 85 or 90°

11. Differentiation between cold shock proteins and cold acclimation proteins in a mesophilic gram-positive bacterium, Enterococcus faecalis JH2-2.
Transfer of Enterococcus faecalis to a cold temperature (8 degrees C for 4 to 30 h) led to increased expression of 11 cold shock proteins (CSPs). Furthermore, this mesophilic prokaryote synthesized 10 cold acclimation proteins, five of them distinct from CSPs, during continuous growth (4 days) at the same temperature (8 degrees C).

12. Cold shock stress-induced proteins in Bacillus subtilis.
Bacteria respond to a decrease in temperature with the induction of proteins that are classified as cold-induced proteins (CIPs). Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, we analyzed the cold shock response in Bacillus subtilis. After a shift from 37 to 15 degrees C the synthesis of a majority of proteins was repressed; in contrast, 37 proteins were synthe
