Background: 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.
Positive Control: Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Immunogen: Synthetic peptide derived from human HSF1 protein.
Purification Method: Antigen Immunoaffiinity Purification
Concentration: See vial for concentration
Formulation: Provided as solution in phosphate buffered saline with 0.08% sodium azide
