PatternWithout stress induction, hsp90 mRNA levels increased over 10 fold between embryonic and larval stages. While the level of hsp90 mRNA oscillates during larval development, even after adulthood, expression of hsp90 in unstressed animals is always at least twice as strong as the expression in embryos. hsp90 expression in stressed animals showed a very similar expression profile. Embryos expressed the least amount of hsp90 mRNA, while larvae and adults consistently expressed at least three times that seen in embryos. While the pattern of hsp90 expression over development did not change in stressed animals, the amount of mRNA was dramatically increased at most developmental stages. Embryos and early larvae (L1 and L2) increased their hsp90 mRNA three fold in response to stress. While L3 showed no stress induced response that was specific to that developmental stage, L4 animals produced 24 times the amount of hsp90 mRNA in response to stress. Likewise, stressed, adult animals (L5) produced five times more hsp90 mRNA than unstressed adults.
