HSFA2 functions in the physiological adaptation of undifferentiated plant cells to spaceflight microgravity environment
The Heat Shock Factor A2 (HsfA2) as a part of the HSF network is essential to the plant  s response to almost any environmental stress and to the cellular homeostatic control mechanisms. Plant cell cultures disabled in HsfA2 function were grown aboard the International Space Station (ISS) in order to ascertain whether …
