HSF2 rabbit polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat

Backgroud: heat shock transcription factor 2(HSF2) Homo sapiens The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the HSF family of transcription factors that bind specifically to the heat-shock promoter element and activate transcription. Heat shock transcription factors activate heat-shock response genes under conditions of heat or other stresses. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011],function:DNA-binding protein that specifically binds heat shock promoter elements (HSE) and activates transcription. In higher eukaryotes, HSF is unable to bind to the HSE unless the cells are heat shocked.,similarity:Belongs to the HSF family.,subcellular location:Cytoplasmic during normal growth and moves to the nucleus upon activation.,subunit:DNA-binding homotrimer in stressed or heat shocked cells, otherwise found as a homodimer.,
