Protein attributes

Sequence length	1114 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation-initiation factor 2 (EIF2), leading to its inactivation and thus to a rapid reduction of translational initiation and repression of global protein synthesis. Serves as a critical effector of unfolded protein response (UPR)-induced G1 growth arrest due to the loss of cyclin-D1 (CCND1). Ref.5
Catalytic activity	ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.
Enzyme regulation	Perturbation in protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) promotes reversible dissociation from HSPA5/BIP and oligomerization, resulting in transautophosphorylation and kinase activity induction.
Subunit structure	Forms dimers with HSPA5/BIP in resting cells. Oligomerizes in ER-stressed cells. Interacts with DNAJC3. Ref.4 Ref.6
Subcellular location	Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Tissue specificity	Ubiquitous.
Induction	By ER stress.
Domain	The lumenal domain senses perturbations in protein folding in the ER, probably through reversible interaction with HSPA5/BIP.
Post-translational modification	Autophosphorylated. N-glycosylated.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GCN2 subfamily. Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
