HSPs are molecular chaperones in charge of protein foldin g and homeostasis. Cells have the remarkable capacity to tailor the expres sion of HSPs to the extent of protein damage. The precise regulation of HS P expression is required to safeguard protein homeostasis and ensure cell functionality upon proteotoxic damage. Using single-molecule fluorescence microscopy techniques\, we have discovered that beyond the activation of H SP transcription\, neurons regulate the subcellular distribution of HSP mR NAs in response to stress. mRNA localization to neuronal projections emerg es as a novel mechanism to regulate the local pool of HSPs and sustain pro teostasis at neuronal processes. As I share our advancements on this proje ct\, I will introduce several mRNA imaging technologies that are helping u s to answer fundamental gene expression regulation questions.\n\nThis semi nar will be given online via Zoom.
