Cells in Stress: Transcriptional Activation of Heat Shock Genes

Cells exposed to stress, such as high temperatures, go through a series of steps that ensure the survival of the cell. When exposed to heat shock, the stressed cell assembles into a trimer, engages in binding activity and becomes phospphorylated.
