Drosophila heat shock factor (HSF) regulates developmental growth by maintaining the basal expression of HSP83/HSP90.
The heat shock transcription factor HSF1 is best known as a master regulator of the proteotoxic stress response, yet its functions remain incompletely understood. In Drosophila melanogaster, heat shock factor (HSF) is essential for viability, but the mechanisms by which it promotes development are unclear. Here, we sho...
