Abstract excerpt
Yeast impact homolog 1 (Yih1), or IMPACT in mammals, is part of a conserved regulatory module controlling the activity of General Control Nonderepressible 2 (Gcn2), a protein kinase that regulates protein synthesis. Yih1/IMPACT is implicated not only in many essential cellular processes, such as neuronal development, immune system regulation and the cell cycle, but also in cancer. Gcn2 must bind to Gcn1 in order...
