Chaperone proteins function to move molecules (such as mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm). They are also called heat shock proteins because they protect the molecule (mRNA) from heat which would degrade the molecule (mRNA) and ruin the process (such as transcription).

Which protein types are vitally important to cell function in all types of stressful circumstances?

Chaperone proteins, heat shock proteins, and DNA repair proteins are vital in maintaining cell function under stressful circumstances. Chaperone proteins assist in protein folding and stability, heat shock proteins help restore protein homeostasis during stress, and DNA repair proteins mend damaged DNA to ensure genomic integrity.
