Name Heat shock transcription factor
Synonyms
  1. HSTF
  2. Heat shock factor protein
  3. HSF
Gene Name HSF1
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function DNA-binding transcription factor that specifically binds heat shock promoter elements (HSE) and activates transcription (PubMed:17040492). Together with its coregulator SSA1, activates expression of laccase LAC1 during glucose starvation (PubMed:17040492).
