Extra Details:
The 90kD molecular chaperone family comprises several proteins including the 90kD heat shock protein, Hsp90 and the 94kD glucose-regulated protein, grp94 which are major molecular chaperones of the cytosol and of the endoplasmic reticulum. In mammalian cells there are at least two Hsp90 isoforms, Hsp90alpha and hsp90beta which are encoded by separate genes. The amino acid sequence of human and yeast Hsp90alpha is 85% and 90% homologous to that of Hsp90beta respectively (1). All known members of the Hsp90 protein family are highly conserved. These proteins account for 1-2% of all cellular proteins in most cells. Hsp90 fights the deleterious consequences of protein unfolding, however, in the absence of stress, Hsp90 is a necessary component of fundamental cellular processes such as hormone signalling and cell cycle control. In this context several key regulatory proteins have been identified as substrates of Hsp90 (4). It has been suggested that Hsp90 acts as a capacitor for morphological evolution by buffering widespread variation, which may affect morphogenic pathways. Recent studies indicate that when Drosophilia Hsp90 buffering is compromised by temperature etc., cryptic variants are expressed and selection can lead to the continued expression of these traits, even if Hsp90 function is restored (5).
