• 2000 The 170-kDa glucose-regulated stress protein is an endoplasmic reticulum protein that binds immunoglobulin HY Lin, P Masso-Welch, YP Di, JW Cai, JW Shen and JR Subjeck Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, New York 14263.
• The 170-kDa glucose-regulated stress protein is an endoplasmic reticulum protein that binds immunoglobulin.
• Degradation of the light-stress protein is mediated by an ATP-independent, serine-type protease under low-light conditions.
• The present invention also relates to compositions comprising a stress protein joined to another component, such as a fusion protein in which a stress protein is fused to an antigen.
• Plant Physiol 107: 1167-1175 Adamska I, Lindahl M, Roobol-Boza M, Andersson B (1996) Degradation of the light-stress protein is mediated by an ATP-independent, serine-type protease under low-light conditions.
