|
| 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.

| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8339932}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8339932}. Note=Cytoplasmic during normal growth and moves to the nucleus upon activation.
