Summary: Enables several functions, including STAT family protein binding activity; promoter-specific chromatin binding activity; and sequence-specific single stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of apoptotic process; regulation of inclusion body assembly; and regulation of macromolecule metabolic process. Located in euchromatin and heterochromatin. Used to study Parkinson's disease; muscular atrophy; and transient cerebral ischemia. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease; Parkinson's disease; congestive heart failure; cryptorchidism; and transient cerebral ischemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Huntington's disease. Orthologous to human HSF1 (heat shock transcription factor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Results identified a large number of novel HSF1 targets a majority of which are not heat shock proteins. It remains to be determined which of them contribute to the novel non-chaperone-dependent mechanism by which HSF1 protects neurons. Based on the HSF1-AB mutant, HSF1 was found to be able to protect neurons without trimerization but this is likely mediated through a non-transcriptional mechanism.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
