“…Transcripts of the plant bZIP60, mammalian XBP1, and yeast HAC1 are alternatively spliced by IRE1 isoforms that are activated upon ER stress (for instance, tunicamycin treatment) by oligomerization and autophosphorylation. Consequently, the bZIP mRNAs are alternatively spliced, with a premature stop codon to exclude the TMD as a result ( Yoshida et al, 2001 ; Calfon et al, 2002 ; Nagashima et al, 2011 ; Jäger et al, 2012 ; Diwan et al, 2021 ). Moreover, for the plant bZIP17 and bZIP28 and the mammalian SREBPs/ATF6, the accumulation of unfolded proteins is sensed in the luminal TF part and results in the translocation of the TFs from the ER to the Golgi, where they are released by the S2P metalloprotease ( Ye et al, 2000a , b ; Stirling and O’Hare, 2006 ; Liu et al, 2008 ; Tajima et al, 2008 ; Iwata et al, 2017 ).…”
