Heat shock transcription factor (HSF), an evolutionarily conserved heat-responsive regulator, binds to heat shock elements (HSEs) comprising continuous inverted repeats of the pentamer nGAAn. Here, we analyzed DNA-binding ability, particularly for the discontinuously arranged nGAAn units, of HSFs from various organisms, including Arabidopsis thaliana, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, and Danio rerio. Among these, only C. elegans HSF failed to bind the discontinuous nGAAn units, which suggests that the target genes of HSFs in many, but not all, organisms contain discontinuous HSEs, as well as continuous HSEs. Further analysis of alternatively spliced HSF isoforms showed the importance of the C-terminal region in HSF–HSE interaction.Structured summary of protein interactionsCeHSF-1binds to CeHSF-1 by cross-linking study(View interaction)DrHSF1abinds to DrHSF1a by cross-linking study(View interaction)DmHSFabinds to DmHSFa by cross-linking study(View interaction)AtHsfA2binds to AtHsfA2 by cross-linking study(View interaction)DrHSF1cbinds to DrHSF1c by cross-linking study(View interaction)CeHSF-1physically interacts with CeHSF-1 by cross-linking study(View interaction)
