Intercellular translocation of sbZIP60 induces BiP3 expression in systemic tissues. a Confocal laser scanning microscopy of Col-0; pSHR-GFP, shr; pSHR-SHR-GFP, and bzip28/60; pSHR-sbZIP60-GFP at the primary root tips of 5-day-old transgenics reveals stele (St) accumulation of GFP, and stele and endodermis (En) distribution of SHR-GFP; noticeably, sbZIP60-GFP is localized in the stele, endodermis, cortex (Co) and epidermis (Ep). Similarly to SHR-GFP, sbZIP60-GFP is localized in nuclei (arrows). As also reported earlier22, we did not find SHR-GFP localization in the nuclei of the cortex and epidermis. Propidium iodide (PI) was used for counterstaining. Scale bar: 50 μm. b Expression of pBIP3:GUS in bzip28/60, Col-0 and bzip28/60;pSHR-sbZIP60-GFP seedlings grown vertically on half LS agar medium for 11 days. X-Gluc was used for histochemical staining to monitor GUS activity. Scale bar: 100 μm. c Longitudinal confocal optical sections of the regions along the primary root shown in b. Epidermis: Ep; Co: cortex; En: endodermis; St: stele. The indications upper, middle and lower refer to the a, b, and c zones indicated in panel b. Scale bar: 20 μm
