HSF1 Gene Information
- HGNC symbol
- HSF1
- Aliases
- HSTF1
- Common name
- heat shock transcription factor 1
- Entrez Id
- 3297
- Description
- The product of this gene is a transcription factor that is rapidly induced after temperature stress and binds heat shock promoter elements (HSE). This protein plays a role in the regulation of lifespan. Expression of this gene is repressed by phosphorylation, which promotes binding by heat shock protein 90. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017].
