| Abstract |
The heat shock protein 70 family is composed of both environmentally inducible (Hsp) and constitutively expressed (Hsc) members. We sequenced two genes encoding Hsp70 and Hsc70 in the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis. The Oehsc70 gene contained introns, while the Oehsp70 gene did not. The corresponding amino acid sequences contained the characteristic motifs of the HSP70 family. |
