TLDR
The heat-shock response is a conserved reaction of cells and organisms to elevated temperatures (heat shock or heat stress).
Abstract
The heat-shock response is a conserved reaction of cells and organisms to elevated temperatures (heat shock or heat stress). Whereas severe heat stress leads to cellular damage and cell death, sublethal doses of heat stress induce a cellular response, the heat-shock response, which (a) protects

Enhanced Thermotolerance of E. coli by Expressed OsHsp90 from Rice ( Oryza sativa L.)

TL;DR: Results indicate that OsHsp90 functioned as a chaperone, binding to a subset of substrates, and maintained E. coli growth well at high temperatures.

Responses and Management of Heat Stress in Plants

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the plant responses to high temperature stress and integrated approaches, such as genetics, breeding and management options to improve the resistance in plants against heat stress.

Functional Analysis of the Maize C-Repeat/DRE Motif-Binding Transcription Factor CBF3 Promoter in Response to Abiotic Stress

TL;DR: The results of the present study suggest that PZmCBF3 might play a role in cold tolerance in maize, and some cis-acting elements involved in the down-regulation of gene expression were detected in the promoter, encompassing positions −1079 to −234.

Development of a heat-shock inducible gene expression system in the red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae.

TL;DR: The development of a heat-shock inducible gene expression system in C. merolae is reported, suggesting that cell cycle progression is not arrested by the impairment of chloroplast division at the final stage.

Functional analysis of OsHSBP1 and OsHSBP2 revealed their involvement in the heat shock response in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

TL;DR: The role of OsHSBP1 and OsHS BP2 in the regulation of the HSR and seed development of rice is revealed and the involvement of HSBP genes in different pathways is revealed.

ATP-dependent nucleosome disruption at a heat-shock promoter mediated by binding of GAGA transcription factor

TL;DR: The chromatin structure of the hsp70 promoter is reconstructed using an in vitro nucleosome assembly system, suggesting that an energy-dependent pathway is involved in chromatin remodelling.

Molecular chaperones and protein folding in plants.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the current understanding of how molecular chaperones function in plants, with a major focus on those systems where the most detailed mechanistic data are available, or where features of the chaperone/foldase system or substrate proteins are unique to plants.

Regulation of heat shock factor trimer formation: role of a conserved leucine zipper

TL;DR: The results suggest that the carboxyl-terminal zipper may suppress formation of trimers by the amino- terminal HSF zipper elements by means of intramolecular coiled-coil interactions that are sensitive to heat shock.
