A more widely conserved bacterial heat-shock regulatory system is typified by the HrcA repressor in Bacillus subtilis, whose activity is modulated by the GroE chaperone machine.
In Escherichia coli, sigma 32 is more efficiently translated and transiently stabilized following heat shock, and DnaK chaperones modulate this effect.
Major signals for induction of the bacterial heat shock response are elevated temperature and the presence of unfolded protein within the cell, but different bacteria sense and transduce these signals differently.
