UniProt Summary
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P19525 # Following activation by double-stranded RNA in the presence of ATP, the kinase becomes autophosphorylated and can catalyze the phosphorylation of the translation initiation factor EIF2S1, which leads to an inhibition of the initiation of protein synthesis. Double-stranded RNA is generated during the course of a viral infection. SIZE: 551 amino acids; 62094 Da SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with STRBP (By similarity). Interacts with DNAJC3. Inhibited by direct interaction with viral proteins such as HCV E2, HCV NS5A and influenza A NS1. Activated by the interaction with HIV-1 Tat. PTM: Autophosphorylated on several Ser and Thr residues. Autophosphorylation of Thr-451 is dependent on Thr-446 and is stimulated by dsRNA binding and dimerization. Autophosphorylation apparently leads to the activation of the kinase. SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P19525 ## Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GCN2 subfamily. & Contains 2 DRBM (double-stranded RNA-binding) domains. & Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
