HSF1 | Trimeric heat shock transcription factor; activates multiple genes in response to highly diverse stresses; recognizes variable heat shock elements (HSEs) consisting of inverted NGAAN repeats; monitors translational status of cell through an RQC (Ribosomal Quality Control)-mediated translation-stress signal; involved in diauxic shift; posttranslationally regulated; human homolog HSF1 with linker region mutations can complement yeast hsf1 mutant; Belongs to the HSF family. (833 aa) | ||||
MCA1 | Metacaspase-1; Ca2+-dependent cysteine protease; may cleave specific substrates during the stress response; regulates apoptosis upon H2O2 treatment; required for clearance of insoluble protein aggregates during normal growth; implicated in cell cycle dynamics and lifespan extension; undergoes autocatalytic processing; similar to mammalian metacaspases, but exists as a monomer due to an extra pair of anti-parallel beta-strands that block potential dimerization; Belongs to the peptidase C14B family.
