The
ability of Hsp90 to activate a disparate clientele implicates this chaperone in
diverse biological processes. To accommodate such varied roles, Hsp90 requiresa variety of regulatory mechanisms that are coordinated in order to modulate
its activity appropriately.

Amongst
these, the master-regulator heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is critically important
in upregulating Hsp90 during stress, but is also responsible, through
interaction with specific transcription factors (such as STAT1 and Strap/p300)
for the integration of a variety of biological signals that ultimately modulate
Hsp90 expression. Additionally, transcription factors, such as STAT1, STAT3
(including STAT1-STAT3 oligomers), NF-IL6, and NF-kB, are known to influence
Hsp90 expression directly.
