RLG1 proteins derived from transgene were mainly found in the cytoplasm; however, some were in the microsomal fraction, possibly on the ER membrane.
Title: Arabidopsis tRNA ligase completes the cytoplasmic splicing of bZIP60 mRNA in the unfolded protein response.

Results indicate that the ER-located transcription factors bZIP17 and bZIP60 play a role in salt stress but this response goes through a signaling pathway that is different to that triggered by the unfolded protein response.
Title: bZIP17 and bZIP60 Regulate the Expression of BiP3 and Other Salt Stress Responsive Genes in an UPR-Independent Manner in Arabidopsis thaliana.

bZIP28 and bZIP60 interact with Ash2 and WDR5a, both of which are core COMPASS-like components.
Title: Transcription factor interaction with COMPASS-like complex regulates histone H3K4 trimethylation for specific gene expression in plants.

bZIP60 binds directly to UPRE-III-containing DNA, and regulates NAC103.
Title: The plant-specific transcription factor gene NAC103 is induced by bZIP60 through a new cis-regulatory element to modulate the unfolded protein response in Arabidopsis.

overexpression of the AtbZIP60 gene in transgenic cell lines improved salt, drought, and cold stress tolerances by regulating expression of Ca(2+)-dependent protein kinase genes.
Title: Transcription factor AtbZIP60 regulates expression of Ca2+ -dependent protein kinase genes in transgenic cells.
