Résumé / Abstract : Cell Stress & Chaperones publishes basic and applied research on cellular stress responses of animals, microorganisms, and plants. Cell stress is broadly defined to include cellular responses to heat shock, oxidative stress, heavy metals, and toxic chemicals. Molecular chaperones include not only the traditional heat shock proteins, but also other proteins which assist protein folding and maintain protein homeostasis. The journal is a forum for the research community, reflecting the creative tension between those engaged in mechanistic studies and in new phenomenological studies. Research on the structure, function, and regulation of chaperones and their genes is complemented by applied research on cellular stress responses in molecular medicine, immunology, toxicology, and environmental biology.
