Gene Information

human ... HSF2(3298)

Specificity

MAB88079 recognizes a protein of 70 kDa, identified as Heat Shock Factor 2 (HSF2). The synthesis of heat shock proteins is dependent on transcriptional and post-transcriptional control in eukaryotic cells. The regulation of heat shock gene transcription is mediated by the transcriptional activator, Heat Shock Factor (HSF), which binds to heat shock response elements (HSEs). At least three HSFs have been isolated from the human, mouse, chicken, and tomato genomes and an additional factor, HSF4 has been identified in humans. HSFs purified from yeast, Drosphila, and human have different molecular weights and do not cross-react immunologically. These factors are activated by distinct stimuli. HSF1 responds to cellular stress signals such as heat, heavy metals, and oxidative reagents whereas, the HSF2 is activated during differentiation. some laboratories have reported that the constitutive, non-DNA binding, monomeric form of inactive HSF1 is located in the cytoplasm. Upon activation, HSF1 is trimerized and is localized in nucleus where it binds DNA. the phosphorylation of HSF1 may be necessary for maximal transcription of heat shock genes.

Estrogen receptors (ERs) regulate transcription by interacting with regulatory elements in target genes. However, known ER regulatory elements cannot explain the expression profiles of genes activated by estradiol (E2) and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). We previously showed that the
