Achievement of thermotolerance through hsps phosphorylation in sea urchin embryos

Cell Biol Int. 1995 Feb;19(2):137-41. doi: 10.1006/cbir.1995.1054.

Abstract

TPA treatment of sea urchin embryos is able to induce thermotolerance. Evidence is provided that TPA treatment induces phosphorylation of a constitutive stress protein of 38 KDa.
