Identification of a <i>cis</i> ‐element that mediates multiple pathways of the endoplasmic reticulum stress response in rice
17 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
The accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen leads to ER stress. Intracellular signalling pathways are activated to alleviate the stress. The ER stress sensor IRE1 induces the active form of key transcription factors, such as XBP1 in mammals and bZIP50 in Oryza sativa (rice), by mediating the unconventional splicing of their mRNAs. Although the characterization of cis-elements...
