ABSTRACT

Diverse thiol-reactive compounds are found to activate the Hsf1-regulated heat shock response in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The highly conserved cytosolic Hsp70 protein chaperone is shown to act as a sensor for these molecules through a pair of reactive cysteine residues in the nucleotide-binding domain.
