S. M. Sun, Zhu, J., Ge, X. P., Zhang, C. F., Miao, L. H., and Jiang, X. J., Cloning and expression analysis of a heat shock protein 90 β isoform gene from the gills of Wuchang bream (Megalobrama amblycephala Yih) subjected to nitrite stress, vol. 14, pp. 3036-3051, 2015.

Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), a highly conserved and multi-functional molecular chaperone, plays an essential role in cellular metabolism and stress response. In this study, HSP90 cDNA named MaHSP90 was cloned from Wuchang bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) gills by using rapid amplification of cDNA ends. The full-length MaHSP90 cDNA is 2674 bp and consists of a 3',5'-untranslated region and a 2250-bp open reading frame encoding a 750-amino acid long protein. Identity analysis revealed that the amino acid sequence of MaHSP90 is highly conserved.
