Heat Shock Proteins, Which Prevent Misfolded Protein Aggregates, Can Be

Question

Heat shock proteins, which prevent misfolded protein aggregates, can be found in
A) bacteria.
B) plants.
C) invertebrates.
D) mammals.
E) All of these.

Accepted Answer

Heat shock proteins are a family of proteins that are produced by cells in response to stressful conditions, including high temperatures. They function as molecular chaperones, helping to prevent the aggregation of misfolded proteins, and are found across all domains of life, including bacteria, plants, invertebrates, and mammals.
