Background Information

Eukaryotic initiation factor 2a (eIF2a), which is a critical component in the formation of the translation initiation ternary complex (eIF2a/GTP/methionyl transfer RNA), plays a key role in the ER stress response. EIF2AK1, which is activated by heme deficiency and other stimuli, is a major kinase that phosphorylates EIF2-alpha. Phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of EIF2 downregulates protein synthesis in response to various stress conditions. EIF2AK1 has some isoforms with 630aa, 577aa and 422aa.
