Analysis of plant gene family heat shock protein 100 (HSP100) and its orthologs in Eukarya reveals sites of divergent evolution and insights into endosymbiotic origins of chloroplasts.

23 This site is likely to be significant in our fungal analysis due to the species-specific collaborations of heat shock proteins. 3 Conclusions While many studies have examined the expression and functions of HSP100s 8 , 15 ,, 31 , 36 , 37 to date, this is the first and largest phylogenetic analysis of this protein family examining the evolutionary gains and losses of these proteins across the tree of life in the context of functional divergence.
