About This Section
Entrez Gene summary for HSF4:
Heat-shock transcription factors (HSFs) activate heat-shock response genes under conditions of heat or other stresses.
HSF4 lacks the carboxyl-terminal hydrophobic repeat which is shared among all vertebrate HSFs and has been suggested
to be involved in the negative regulation of DNA binding activity. Two alternatively spliced transcripts encoding
distinct isoforms and possessing different transcriptional activity have been described. (provided by RefSeq, Jul
2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: HSF4_HUMAN, Q9ULV5
Function: DNA-binding protein that specifically binds heat shock promoter elements (HSE). Isoform HSF4A represses
transcription while the isoform HSF4B activates transcription

Post-translational modifications:

  • Phosphorylated mainly on serine residues. Phosphorylation on Ser-298 promotes sumoylation on Lys-2931
  • Isoform HSF4B is constitutively sumoylated. Sumoylation represses the transcriptional activity and is promoted by
    • phosphorylation on Ser-298. HSFA is not sumoylated1

  • Defects in HSF4 are the cause of cataract, zonular (CZ) [MIM:116800]. A form of zonular cataract. Zonular or
    • lamellar cataracts are opacities, broad or narrow, usually consisting of powdery white dots affecting only certain
    layers or zones between the cortex and nucleus of an otherwise clear lens. The opacity may be so dense as to render
    the entire central region of the lens completely opaque, or so translucent that vision is hardly if at all impeded.
    Zonular cataracts generally do not involve the embryonic nucleus, though sometimes they involve the fetal nucleus.
    Usually sharply separated from a clear cortex outside them, they may have projections from their outer edges known as
    riders or spokes
  • Defects in HSF4 are the cause of cataract Marner type (CAM) [MIM:116800]. A form of cataract with variable and
    • progressive opacities. Affected individuals present with zonular cataract, although some have nuclear, anterior polar,
    or stellate cataract. Finger malformation is observed in some kindreds
