Target Details for EIF2AK2

Target: EIF2AK2 (Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2-alpha Kinase 2 (EIF2AK2))

Alternative Name: PKR

Background: EIF2AK2, PKR, PRKR, Interferon-induced, double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase, Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase 2, eIF-2A protein kinase 2, Interferon-inducible RNA-dependent protein kinase, P1/eIF-2A protein kThe protein encoded by EIF2AK2 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 2) is a serine/threonine protein kinase that is activated by autophosphorylation after binding to dsRNA. The activated form of the encoded protein can phosphorylate translation initiation factor EIF2S1, which in turn inhibits protein synthesis. This protein is also activated by manganese ions and heparin. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for EIF2AK2.
