| TAIR Curator Summary | bZIP17 appears to regulate transcription as part of a salt and osmotic stress response. zip17 mutants show enhanced inhibition of primary root elongation in response to NaCl. Several salt-responsive genes, such as ATHB-7 show a reduced transcriptional response to a salt treatment in zip17 mutant seedlings. myc:bZIP17 undergoes proteolytic processing in salt-treated wild type seedlings, but not in s1p-3 (subtilase) mutants and there is also evidence for S1P-mediated cleavage of bZIP17 in vitro. In addition, an mGFP:bZIP17 protein moves from the ER to the nucleus following salt treatment. It is cleaved by S2P to allow translocation to the nucleus. |
