HSF1: Primary Factor in Molecular Chaperone Expression and a Major Contributor to Cancer Morbidity

Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is the primary component for initiation of the powerful heat shock response (HSR) in eukaryotes. The HSR is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism for responding to proteotoxic stress and involves the rapid expression of heat shock protein (HSP) molecular chaperones that pr...
