Yeast heat shock factor is an essential DNA-binding protein that exhibits temperature-dependent phosphorylation
Abstract
Heat shock promoters contain one or more binding sites for a specific heat shock factor (HSF). We report the cloning and sequence of the gene encoding yeast HSF, and demonstrate that HSF is required for growth at normal temperatures (15 degrees C-30 degrees C). The activity of a promoter containing a synthetic HSF binding site varies over a 200-fold range between 15 degrees C and 39 degrees C (heat shock). This change in activity is accompanied by multiple changes in the phosphorylation state of HSF, but all forms of HSF are able to bind DNA. We propose that the expression of heat shock genes in yeast is modulated by phosphorylation of DNA-bound HSF, and that this leads to a more efficient interaction of the factor with other components of the transcriptional machinery.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
