Abstract Etiolated maize radicles (inbred Oh43) subjected to a brief heat shock synthesize a family of small heat shock proteins (≃18 kD) that is composed of at least 12 members. We previously described the cDNA-derived sequence of three maize shsp mRNAs (cMHSP18-1, cMHSP18-3, and cMHSP18-9). In this report, we demonstrate that the mRNA transcribed in vitro from one of these cDNAs (cMHSP 18-9) is responsible for the synthesis of three members of the shsp family, and we suggest that cMHSP18-3 may be responsible for the synthesis of three additional members and cMHSP18-1 for the synthesis of two other members of this family. The fact that these genes do not contain introns, coupled with the observations reported herein, suggest that maize may have established another method of using a single gene to produce a number of different proteins.

At least four proteins of 70,000 to 75,000 molecular weight (70-75K) were synthesized from mRNA which hybridized with a cloned heat shock gene previously shown to be localized to the 87A and 87C heat shock puff sites. These in vitro-synthesized proteins were indistinguishable from in vivo-synthesized heat shock-induced proteins when analyzed on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. A comparison of the pattern of this group of proteins synthesized in vivo during a 5-min pulse or during continuous labeling indicates that the 72-75K proteins are probably not kinetic precursors to the major 70K heat shock protein. Partial digestion products generated with V8 protease indicated that the 70-75K heat shock proteins are closely related, but that there are clear differences between them. The partial digestion patterns obtained from heat shock proteins from the Kc cell line and from the Oregon R strain of Drosophila melanogaster are very similar. Genetic analysis of the patterns of 70-75K heat shock protein synthesis indicated that the genes encoding at least two of the three 72-75K heat shock proteins are located outside of the major 87A and 87C puff sites.
