Description : (at2g40950 : 155.0) 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.; BZIP17; CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Basic-leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor (InterPro:IPR004827), bZIP transcription factor, bZIP-1 (InterPro:IPR011616); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: basic region/leucine zipper motif protein 49 (TAIR:AT3G56660.1); Has 2042 Blast hits to 1979 proteins in 244 species: Archae - 0; Bacteria - 308; Metazoa - 517; Fungi - 244; Plants - 733; Viruses - 84; Other Eukaryotes - 156 (source: NCBI BLink). & (p14233|tga1b_tobac : 94.0) TGACG-sequence-specific DNA-binding protein TGA-1B (TGA1b) (HSBF) (Fragment) - Nicotiana tabacum (Common tobacco) & (reliability: 310.0) & (original description: no original description)
