Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)-interacting proteins (HIPs) have been studied in animals. HIPs perform diverse cellular functions, ranging from alleviating stress to suppressing the formation of insoluble protein, but how their orthologs function in plants is less known. This study shows that Arabidopsis HIP is a cytosolic and nuclear protein associated with HSP70.

The co-chaperone heat shock protein (HSP)70-HSP90 organizing protein (HOP) is involved in plant thermotolerance. However, its function in plant salinity tolerance was not yet studied. We found that Arabidopsis HOP1 and HOP2 play critical roles in salt tolerance by affecting the nucleo-cytoplasmic partitioning of HSP90 and brassinosteroid-insensitive 2 (BIN2).
