... hsp70 and hsp90 promoters [21]. As we showed, in this study, thatSTAT3 directly bound to the region between )206 and )187 bp of the hsp70 promoter and enhanced the expression of the hsp70 gene ... Hsp105b-induced expression of the hsp70 gene. STAT3, but not HSF1, binds to the region between )206 and )187 bp of the hsp70promoterNext, we investigated protein binding to the region between )206 and ... for the human hsp70 gene between )272 and )13 (forward, 5¢-CCA TGG AGACCA ACA CCC T-3¢; reverse, 5¢-CCC TGG GCT TTTATA AGT CGT-3¢), or the human hsp70 gene between )1860 and ) 656 (forward,...
