Abstract excerpt
Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), in addition to its pivotal role as a regulator of the heat shock response, functions as a versatile gene repressor. We have investigated the structural domains involved in gene repression using mutational analysis of the hsf1 gene. Our studies indicate that HSF1 contains two adjacent sequences located within the N-terminal half of the protein that mediate the repression of c-fos and...
