Abstract

Clones containing heat-inducible mRNA sequences were selected from a cDNA library prepared from polyadenylated RNA isolated from heat-shocked chicken embryo fibroblasts. One recombinant DNA clone, designated clone 7, hybridized to a 1.2-kilobase RNA that was present in normal cells and increased fivefold during heat shock. Clone 7 also hybridized to an RNA species of 1.7 kilobases that was present exclusively in heat-shocked cells. In vitro translation of mRNA hybrid selected from clone 7 produced a protein product with a molecular weight of approximately 8,000. Increased synthesis of a protein of similar size was detected in chicken embryo fibroblasts after heat shock. DNA sequence analysis of clone 7 indicated its protein product has amino acid sequences identical to bovine ubiquitin. In addition, clone 7 contains tandem copies of the ubiquitin sequences contiguous to each other with no untranslated sequences between them. We discuss some possible roles for ubiquitin in the heat shock response.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
