“…The efficient solubilization of aggregated proteins requires the cooperation of the DnaK–DnaJ–GrpE system with ClpB (Hsp100), IbpA/B (the small Hsp family), or Hsp33, which is the primary chaperone redox-activated upon oxidative stress. Most of these chaperones were found to be upregulated in A. baumannii submitted to stresses that impair homeostasis: heat shock (DnaK, GroEL), oxidative stress (GrpE, DnaK, GroES, GroEL), antibiotic exposure (DnaK, GroEL), and desiccation (TF, GroES, GrpE, DnaJ, DnaK, ClpX, ClpB) [ 18 , 86 , 87 , 93 , 94 ]. Wang et al reported that the expression of more than 50 genes encoding proteins related to proteostasis, including chaperones and the Lon protease, was increased during desiccation [ 86 ].…”
