Abstract excerpt
Double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase R (PKR) has been implicated in anti-viral (antitumor) and apoptotic responses. PKR is activated by extracellular stresses and phosphorylates the alpha subunit of protein synthesis initiation factor eIF2, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis and impedin...
