MeSH definition : One of the BASIC-LEUCINE ZIPPER TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS that is synthesized as a membrane-bound
protein in the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. In response to endoplasmic reticulum stress
it translocates to the GOLGI APPARATUS. It is activated by PROTEASES and then moves
to the CELL NUCLEUS to regulate GENETIC TRANSCRIPTION of GENES involved in the unfolded
protein response.;
