GFP fusions containing the first 260 amino acids (AtbZIP60deltaC) are nuclear-localized. AtbZIP60 is upregulated by the addition of tunicamycin (ER stress response inductor), DTT (inhibitor of disulfide bond formation) and azetin-2-carboxylate (proline analog perturbing protein structure). It is hypothesized that upon ER stress the protein is proteolyzed and the soluble part translocalized into the nucleus. AtbZIP60deltaC can activate the promoters of the ER chaperones BiP1, BiP2 and BiP3 and CNX1 and CNX2 via binding to the ER stress response element (ERSE) and the plant unfolded protein response element(P-UPRE). It can also activate its own transcription. | chr1:16138292-16139903 REVERSE | Aliases: ATBZIP60, F13A11.5, F13A11_5

    bZIP Family Introduction

    One group of transcription factors is defined by a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) motif. This bipartite DNA binding structure consists of a region enriched in basic amino acids (basic region) adjacent to a leucine zipper that is characterized by several leucine residues regularly spaced at seven-amino acid intervals. Whereas the basic region directly contacts the DNA, the leucine zipper mediates homodimerization and heterodimerization of protein monomers through a parallel interaction of the hydrophobic dimerization interfaces of two a-helices, resulting in a coiled-coil structure.

    The Arabidopsis bZlP family of G-box binding factors (GBF1,GBF2, and GBF3) interact with the palindromic G-box motif(CCACGTGG) found in several plant promoters. For ease of reference, we have numbered the in-dividual base pairs encompassing the G-box from -4 to +4 (numbering from 5¡¯to 3¡¯). We have demonstrated that the DNA binding specificity of GBF1 is strongly influenced by the nature of the nucleotides (positions -4, -3, +3, and +4) flanking the ACGT core sequence. For example, sequences that carry a TG at positions -4 and -3 and a T or G residue at position +4 are as efficiently bound by GBFl as the palindromic G-box.
