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:

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

Do other halophiles have heat shock genes?

Do halophiles that live in extreme heat have heat shock genes?

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.

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?
