    Cooperative physical interactions among eEF1BdeltaL, RNF20/40, and HSF1 synergistically promote expression of heat shock-responsive genes. In addition, eEF1BdeltaL is a novel ubiquitylation target of RNF20/40 and elucidating its function. This provides a molecular mechanism for the cooperative function of distinct transcription factors in heat shock-responsive gene transcription.

    RNF20/40-mediated eEF1BδL monoubiquitylation stimulates transcription of heat shock-responsive genes.
