HSP43, a small heat-shock protein localized to specific cells of the vulva and spermatheca in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
Heat-shock protein 43 (HSP43) of Caenorhabditis elegans is prominently expressed in the utse cell, which attaches the uterus to the hypodermis, the uv1 cells joining the vulva and the uterus, the spermathecal valve and junctions between cells of the spermathecal cage. In body-wall muscle, HSP43 forms a punctate pattern of circumferential lines, probably corresponding to regions where the hypodermis contacts the muscle cells.
