Heat Shock Factor 1 Is a Substrate for p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases
Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) monitors the structural integrity of the proteome. Phosphorylation at S326 is a hallmark for HSF1 activation, but the identity of the kinase(s) phosphorylating this site has remained elusive. We show here that the dietary agent

Hopf bifurcation in a gene regulatory network model: Molecular movement causes oscillations [PDF]
Gene regulatory networks, i.e. DNA segments in a cell which interact with each other indirectly through their RNA and protein products, lie at the heart of many important intracellular signal transduction processes.

Differential recognition of heat shock elements by members of the heat shock transcription factor family [PDF]
Heat shock transcription factor (HSF), an evolutionarily conserved stress response regulator, forms trimers and binds to heat shock element (HSE), comprising at least three continuous inverted repeats of the sequence 5′‐nGAAn‐3′. The single HSF of yeast is also able to bind discontinuously arranged nGAAn units.

In the present investigation, differential expression of two transcription factor genes (HsfA4d and HsfB2a) and a heat shock protein (ClpD1/HSP100) was evaluated in the rice varieties N22 and Co 51 using qRT-PCR.

Absence of ataxin-3 leads to enhanced stress response in C. elegans. [PDF]
Ataxin-3, the protein involved in Machado-Joseph disease, is able to bind ubiquitylated substrates and act as a deubiquitylating enzyme in vitro, and it has been involved in the modulation of protein degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.

Compound A, a selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator, enhances heat shock protein Hsp70 gene promoter activation [PDF]
Compound A possesses glucocorticoid receptor (GR)-dependent anti-inflammatory properties. Just like classical GR ligands, Compound A can repress NF-kappa B-mediated gene expression.

Phosphorylation of Drosophila heat shock transcription factor
The role that phosphorylation plays in regulating heat shock factor (HSF) function and activity has been the subject of several studies. Here, we demonstrate that Drosophila melanogaster HSF (DmHSF) is a phosphoprotein that is multiply phosphorylated at some sites and is dephosphorylated at others upon heat shock.

Molecular mechanism of thermosensory function of human heat shock transcription factor Hsf1
The heat shock response is a universal homeostatic cell autonomous reaction of organisms to cope with adverse environmental conditions. In mammalian cells, this response is mediated by the heat shock transcription factor Hsf1, which is monomeric in ...
