Progresses have been made on the functions of molecular chaperone in folding, assemble, and transportation of the proteins synthesized in novo and the degradation of proteins. The number of mitochondria was changed in combination with the change of the expression of chaperone. Here, we would elucidate the progress in chaperone participating in regulations of plant and animal development and evolution. This review mainly focused on the regulation of plant and animal fertility, the improvement of stress resistance, and some progresses in tumor treatment of heat shock protein.
