Source Description
TAIREncodes bZIP28, a putative membrane-tethered transcriptional factor. Up-regulated in response to heat; a bZIP28 null mutant has a heat-sensitive phenotype. bZIP28 has a similar domain structure to the mammalian ATF6 protein involved in the unfolded protein response (UPR), and shares a bZIP domain, transmembrane domain, and a canonical S1P cleavage site. The bZIP28 seems to be glycosylated in vivo. bZIP28 does not appear to be transcriptionally up-regulated by UPR-inducing tunicamycin (TM) treatment. But, the expression level of three UPR-related genes is reduced in TM-treated zip28 mutants relative to wild type seedlings. And several UPR genes are transcriptionally upregulated when an N-terminal portion of the bZIP28 protein is expressed using the 35S promoter. A myc:bZIP28 fusion protein appears to be cleaved, likely at a canonical S2 cleavage site, following a TM treatment or a DTT stress-inducing treatment, but not a salt treatment. A portion of the mGFP:bZIP28 protein present in root cells appears to translocate from the cytoplasm and ER to the nucleus following TM treatment.
UniProtTranscriptional activator involved in ER stress responses. Functions as a stress sensor and transducer in ER stress signaling pathway. After proteolysis by SBT6.1 (S1P) and S2P, the N-terminal bZIP component is translocated to the nucleus, where it activates the expression and production of ER chaperones (PubMed:18156219, PubMed:18634751, PubMed:18849477, PubMed:20876872). Following ER stress, activates proteins involved in brassinosteroid (BR) signaling, which is required for stress acclimation and growth (PubMed:20876872). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18156219, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18634751, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18849477, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20876872}.
