Integrative analysis of the heat shock response in Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]
, 2010 Background Aspergillus fumigatus is a thermotolerant human-pathogenic mold and the most common cause of invasive aspergillosis (IA) in immunocompromised patients. Its predominance is based on several factors most of which are still unknown.

The pause-initiation limit restricts transcription activation in human cells.
, 2019 Eukaryotic gene transcription is often controlled at the level of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) pausing in the promoter-proximal region. Pausing Pol II limits the frequency of transcription initiation ('pause-initiation limit'), predicting that the pause ...

Heat shock proteins and the cellular response to osmotic stress [PDF]
, 2000 In antidiuresis, the intrarenal distribution of HSP25/27, alpha beta -crystallin, HSP72, OSP94 and HSP110 corresponds to the osmotic gradient between cortex and papilla: low amounts in the cortex and high values in the inner medulla and papilla.

Deteriorated stress response in stationary-phase yeast: Sir2 and Yap1 are essential for Hsf1 activation by heat shock and oxidative stress, respectively. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Stationary-phase cultures have been used as an important model of aging, a complex process involving multiple pathways and signaling networks. However, the molecular processes underlying stress response of non-dividing cells are poorly understood ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Heat-shock transcription factors (HSFs) with a HSF domain are regulators of fungal heat-shock protein (HSP) genes and many others vectoring heat-shock elements, to which the domain binds in response to heat shock and other stress cues.

Polymorphisms of Bovine HSP90 and Their Implications in Beef Cattle Productivity [PDF]
, 2018 Production of beef cattle represents a $60 billion industry in the United States (USDA, 2015). The American beef cattle industry loses an estimated $370 million annually due to heat stress (St-Pierre, 2003).

Heat Shock Factor 5 Is Essential for Spermatogenesis in Zebrafish
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Heat shock factors (Hsfs) are transcription factors that regulate responses to heat shock and other environmental stimuli. Four heat shock factors (Hsf1-4) have been characterized from vertebrates to date.

Beating the Heat: A Translation Factor and an RNA Mobilize the Heat Shock Transcription Factor HSF1 [PDF]
Molecular Cell, 2006 Cells respond to stress via orchestrated modifications in gene expression; in a recent publication in Nature, Shamovsky et al. (2006) report that an RNA and a translation factor regulate the activity of a transcriptional activator essential to the mammalian heat shock response.
