Abstract excerpt
There is a large amount of evidence describing the expression, interaction, and mode of activation of the human interferon (IFN)-mediated double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) gene. Studies from Pkr-null mice have defined the kinase as a transducer of dsRNA signals that converge on transcription, translation, and apoptotic programs involved in the innate resistance to viral infection. In vitro...
