Genetic Selection for Constitutively Trimerized Human HSF1 Mutants Identifies a Role for Coiled-Coil Motifs in DNA Binding
Human heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) promotes the expression of stress-responsive genes and is a critical factor for the cellular protective response to proteotoxic and other stresses. In response to stress, HSF1 undergoes a transition from a repressed cytoplasmic monomer to a homotrimer,...
