Wide distribution of the cysteine string proteins in Drosophila tissues revealed by targeted mutagenesis
- BiologyCell and Tissue Research
- 1998
The wide expression of CSPs suggests that at least some of the various phenotypes of the null mutants observed at permissive temperatures, such as delayed development, short adult lifespan, modified electroretinogram, and optomotor behavior, may be caused by the lack of C SPs outside synaptic terminals.
Characterisation of a new human and murine member of the DnaJ family of proteins.
- Biology, Computer ScienceBiochemical and biophysical research communications
- 1998
The characterisation of a human gene, designated MCG18 (multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 candidate gene 18), that encodes a new member of the DnaJ family of proteins, predicted to encode a 241 amino acid product that has partial homology to Escherichia coli dnaJ.
Structure–function analysis of the cysteine string protein in Drosophila: cysteine string, linker and C terminus
- BiologyJournal of Experimental Biology
- 2004
It is proposed that the cysteine string, in addition to its role in targeting, may be essential for a function of CSP that is dependent on the number of cysteines in the string.
Cysteine‐String Protein
- BiologyJournal of neurochemistry

Evidence implicate Csps as molecular chaperones in the synapse that are likely to control the correct conformational folding of one or more components of the vesicular exocytotic machinery.
The Molecular Chaperone Function of the Secretory Vesicle Cysteine String Proteins*
- Biology, Computer ScienceThe Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 1997
Results show that both Csp1 and Csp2 can bind a partially unfolded protein and act as chaperones, suggesting that Csps may have a general chaperone function in regulated exocytosis.
Genetic mapping of the gene encoding cysteine string protein
- BiologyMammalian Genome
- 2009
The mapping of the porcine NFI/CTF gene to SSC 2q 12-13 corroborates the conserved synteny between HSA19p and the homologous segment at SSC2cen-q21, which has also been demonstrated by a recent forward and reverse Zoo-FISH approach.
Mutational analysis of cysteine-string protein function in insulin exocytosis.
- Biology, Computer ScienceJournal of cell science
- 1999
A functional difference between the two isoforms of Csp wild-type or mutants is demonstrated and a role for the J-domain co-chaperone function as well as for the newly defined linker region in LDCV exocytosis is suggested.

New data is presented that indicates that E. coli strains deficient in either dnaK or dnaJ overexpress other heat shock inducible proteins (such as the chaperonin groEL and groES) and are incompetent for phage replication at any temperature (for reviews see Georgopoulos et al, 1990, Ang et al., 1991).
