General description

HSF1 is a member of the heat shock transcription factor family. Protein-damaging stress lead to the activation of HSF1 which binds to upstream regulatory sequences in the promoters of heat shock genes leading to enhanced heat shock gene expression. The activation of HSF1 proceeds through a multi-step pathway, involving a monomer-to-trimer transition, nuclear accumulation and extensive posttranslational modifications. HSF1 activity is regulated at different levels by heat shock proteins and co-chaperones and is modulated further by a number of mechanisms involving other stress-regulated aspects of cell metabolism.

The heat shock response is triggered primarily by nonnative proteins accumulating in a stressed cell and results in increased expression of heat shock proteins (Hsps), i.e., of chaperones capable of participating in the refolding or elimination of nonnative proteins. Best

The heat shock response, characterized by increased expression of heat shock proteins (Hsps) is induced by exposure of cells and tissues to extreme conditions that cause acute or chronic stress. Hsps function as molecular chaperones in regulating cellular homeostasis and
