An NMR Study on the clpC Operon Binding Region of Transcription Factor CtsR from Bacillus subtilis

Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 2021
When Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis responds to heat-shock, protein arginine kinase McsB phosphorylates Arg62 (R) in the clpC operon binding region of transcription factor CtsR, leading to dissociation of CtsR and clpC operon and initiation of

Differential gene expression studies on HsfA4d, HsfB2a and ClpD1/HSP100 during heat stress in the rice varieties N22 and Co51

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2020
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.

HSF1 Can Prevent Inflammation following Heat Shock by Inhibiting the Excessive Activation of the ATF3 and JUN&FOS Genes

Cells, 2022
Heat Shock Factor 1 (HSF1), a transcription factor frequently overexpressed in cancer, is activated by proteotoxic agents and participates in the regulation of cellular stress response.

Heat Shock Factor 1 Is a Transcription Factor of Fas Gene

Molecules and Cells, 2010
In mammalian cells, stress-induced expression of heat shock protein is controlled by heat shock factor 1 (HSF1). However, HSF1 functions as a regulator of additional genes. In this study, we observed that heat treatment effectively induced expression of Fas.

Differential recognition of heat shock elements by members of the heat shock transcription factor family [PDF]

The FEBS Journal, 2009
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.

The Yeast and Mammalian Ras Pathways Control Transcription of Heat Shock Genes Independently of Heat Shock Transcription Factor [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1994
Yeast strains in which the Ras-cyclic AMP (cAMP) pathway is constitutively active are sensitive to heat shock, whereas mutants in which the activity of this pathway is low are hyperresistant to heat shock. To determine the molecular basis for these differences, we examined the transcriptional induction of heat shock genes in various yeast strains ...

Complex expression of murine heat shock transcription factors

Nucleic Acids Research, 1995
A central step in the transcriptional activation of heat shock genes is the binding of the heat shock factor (HSF) to upstream heat shock elements (HSEs). In vertebrates, HSF1 mediates the ubiquitous response to stress stimuli, while the role of a second HSE-binding factor, HSF2, is still unclear. In this work we show that both factors are expressed in

Role of Heat Shock Factors in Stress-Induced Transcription [PDF]

, 2017
Heat shock proteins (HSP) are rapidly induced after stresses such as heat shock and accumulate at high concentrations in cells. HSP induction involves primarily a family of heat shock transcription factors (HSF) that bind the heat shock elements of the HSP genes and mediate transcription in trans.

Direct Sensing of Heat and Oxidation by Drosophila Heat Shock Transcription Factor [PDF]

Molecular Cell, 1998
The heat shock transcription factor HSF activates expression of its target genes in response to elevated temperatures and chemical or physiological stress. A key step in the activation process involves the formation of HSF homotrimers, leading to high-affinity DNA binding.

Hsf1 and Hsp90 orchestrate temperature-dependent global transcriptional remodelling and chromatin architecture in Candida albicans

Nature Communications, 2016
The transcription factor Hsf1 and the molecular chaperone Hsp90 modulate the heat shock response in the pathogen Candida albicans. Here, Leach et al. reveal a complex interplay between the two factors that regulates the expression of genes involved in ...
