Background: EIF2AK1 acts at the level of translation initiation to downregulate protein synthesis in response to stress. The protein is a kinase that can be inactivated by hemin. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.The HRI gene is localized to 7p22 where its 3' end slightly overlaps the 3' end of the gene JTV1. The two genes are transcribed from opposite strands. Studies in rat and rabbit suggest that the HRI gene product phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2. Its kinase activity is induced by low levels of heme and inhibited by the presence of heme. Sequence Note: The sequence AF181071.1 is a chimeric mRNA clone. Only the heme-regulated initiation factor 2-alpha kinase region was propagated into this RefSeq record.
