Abstract
Hsp83 is a major eucaryotic heat shock protein and one of the most conserved proteins known. We have isolated an Escherichia coli gene homologous to eucaryotic Hsp83 and used it to construct a deletion mutation. The E. coli mutant was viable but had a slight growth disadvantage that increased with temperature.This publication has 39 references indexed in Scilit:
