Comparison of regulatory strategies for the heat shock response

Heat shock response characteristic Regulatory strategy in:
A. tumefaciens E. coli
Induction of RpoH synthesis Transcriptional level (autogenous control) Translational level
Control of RpoH activity Activation during the induction phase Inhibition during the adaptation phase
Control of RpoH stability Destabilization during the adaptation phase Stabilization during the induction phase
Induction of other HSP Primarily caused by activation of RpoH Primarily caused by increased RpoH level
