The Skn7 Response Regulator Of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Interacts With Hsf1 In Vivo And Is Required For The Induction Of Heat Shock Genes By Oxidative Stress, Desmond C. Raitt, Anthony L. Johnson, Alexander M. Erkine, Kozo Makino, Brian Morgan, David S. Gross, Leland H. Johnston

Scholarship and Professional Work – COPHS

The Skn7 response regulator has previously been shown to play a role in the induction of stress-responsive genes in yeast, e.g., in the induction of the thioredoxin gene in response to hydrogen peroxide. The yeast Heat Shock Factor, Hsf1, is central to the induction of another set of stress-inducible genes, namely the heat shock genes. These two regulatory trans-activators, Hsf1 and Skn7, share certain structural homologies, particularly in their DNA-binding domains and the presence of adjacent regions of coiled-coil structure, which are known to mediate protein–protein interactions. Here, we provide evidence that Hsf1 and Skn7 interact in vitro and …
