???displayArticle.abstract???
In Paracentrotus lividus embryos, treatment with zinc ions induces the synthesis of the two major stress proteins with the same molecular weight as those induced by heat shock. The developmental stages responsive to zinc ion treatment are the same as those responsive to heat shock. However, zinc treatment induces a longer lasting synthesis of the stress proteins, and, unlike heat shock, does not induce thermotolerance and does not inhibit synthesis of the bulk proteins.
