Early response of protein quality control in gills is associated with survival of hypertonic shock in Mozambique tilapia.

The protein quality control (PQC) mechanism is essential for cell function and viability. PQC with proper biological function depends on molecular chaperones and proteases. The hypertonicity-induced protein damage and responses of PQC mechanism in aquatic organisms, however, are poorly understood. I...
