Characterization, Stress Response and Functional Analyses of Giant River Prawn () Glucose-Regulated Protein 78 (Mr-grp78) under Temperature Stress and during Infection.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle important for several functions of cellular physiology. This study identified the giant river prawn's (), which is important for ER stress mechanisms. Nucleotide and amino acid analyses of , as compared with other species, revealed the highest similarity scores with the genes of crustaceans.

Functional and Stress Response Analysis of Heat Shock Proteins 40 and 90 of Giant River Prawn () under Temperature and Pathogenic Bacterial Exposure Stimuli.

The aims of this research were to perform molecular characterization and biofunctional analyses of giant river prawn and genes ( and ) under various stress conditions. Comparisons of the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of and with those of other species showed the highest similarity scores with crustaceans. Under normal conditions, expression analysis using quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) indicated that was highly expressed in the gills and testis, and expression was observed in all tissues, with the highest expression in the ovary.
