On heat and cells and proteins.
Two principal forms of temperature-control strategies have evolved, i.e., poikilothermic and homeothermic life. Even in homeothermic animals, the temperature field of the body is not homogeneous. These observed temperature differences can affect cellular function directly or via the expression of heat shock or cold shock proteins.
