Structural and functional characterisation of the nutrient sensing kinase GCN2

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

A cell’s ability to recognise and respond to changes in its environment is crucial to its survival. The availability of nutrients is a fundamental part of the environment, and so cells must be able to identify when they are plentiful and when they are scarce, and adapt accordingly. GCN2 is a key protein kinase within the eukaryotic proteome, and it is activated by a drop in the intracellular concentration of amino...
