======= HSF2 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: HSF2 * **Official Name**: heat shock transcription factor 2 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=3298|3298]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q03933|Q03933]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=HSF2&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20HSF2|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/140581|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: 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]. * **UniProt Summary**: 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. |Vert HS TF| |HSF DNA-bind| |positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter in response to heat stress| |RNA polymerase II intronic transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding| |positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter in response to stress| |cellular response to heat| |response to heat| |regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter in response to stress| |regulation of DNA-templated transcription in response to stress| |response to temperature stimulus| |transcription coactivator activity| |RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding| |sequence-specific DNA binding| |DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |transcription by RNA polymerase II| |RNA polymerase II proximal promoter sequence-specific DNA binding| |spermatogenesis| |male gamete generation| |transcription, DNA-templated| |nucleic acid-templated transcription| |RNA biosynthetic process| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity| |gamete generation| |multicellular organismal reproductive process| |sexual reproduction| |multicellular organism reproduction| |protein homodimerization activity| |multi-organism reproductive process| |nucleobase-containing compound biosynthetic process| |response to abiotic stimulus| |heterocycle biosynthetic process| |aromatic compound biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II| |organic cyclic compound biosynthetic process| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |cellular nitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |RNA metabolic process| |cellular response to stress| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp82|Torin1 0.08μM R02 exp82]]|-1.82| |[[:results:exp123|GSK-LSD1 10μM R03 exp123]]|1.71| |[[:results:exp535|Trimetrexate 0.03μM R08 exp535]]|1.82| |[[:results:exp493|IL-3 9ng/ml R08 exp493]]|2.04| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
