To elucidate the induction mechanism of HSP70 by geranylgeranylacetone (GGA), we investigated GGA specific binding proteins using a GGA-affinity column. Alteration of chaperone activity of HSP70 and binding affinity of HSP70 to heat shock factor-1 (HSF-1) was evaluated in the presence or absence of GGA. The binding domain of HSP70 to GGA was also analyzed. A 70-kDa protein eluted by 10 mM GGA from the GGA-affinity column was identical to constitutively expressed HSP70 on immunoblotting. GGA-binding domain of HSP70 was C-terminal of the protein as peptide-binding domain (HSP70C). The chaperone activity of HSP70 and recombinant HSP70C was suppressed by GGA. Furthermore, dissociation of the HSP70 from HSF-1 was observed in the presence of GGA. GGA preferentially binds to the C-terminal of HSP70 which binds to HSF-1. After dissociation of HSP70, free HSF-1 could acquire the ability to bind to HSE (the promoter region of HSP70) gene.
