Heat Shock Genes

Our halophile's (Halomicrobium mukohataei) genome has 2 heat shock genes: Heat shock protein (644030037) and Heat shock protein (644032460).

Confirmed Annotation for Both Genes:


Possible Other Questions of Interest:

1). Are these two gene's paralogs, orthologs or alien genes?

2). Do other halophiles have heat shock genes?

3). Do eukarya and prokarya have heat shock genes? If so how do the number and sequence of heat shock genes compare to that of other species and domains.

4). Our halophile has five cold shock genes. Do these genes operate under the same mechanism as heat shock genes? Why are there more cold shock than heat shock genes?

5). By what mechanism do heat shock genes in archaea up-regulate a specific series of genes that are more suitable for hotter environments?

6). By what mechanism do heat shock genes in bacteria and eukarya change the transcription of certain genes? Does a difference in mechanisms account for the some genes that exist in our species but not in the other domains?

7). Do halophiles that live in extreme heat have heat shock genes?
