Heat Shock Factor Protein 2 (HSF2) belongs to the HSF family of transcription factors that bind specifically to the heat-shock promoter element and activate transcription. In higher eukaryotes, HSF is unable to bind to the HSE unless the cells are heat shocked. HSF2 is widely expressed in many cells and tissues. HSF2 is located on Cytoplasmic during normal growth. But when it is activited, HSF2 moves to the nucleus.
Recombinant Human Heat Shock Factor Protein-2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Ser411-Ser536 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus.
