PKR (Protein Kinase RNA-activated) is activated by metabolic stress, such as that associated with obesity, and this activation depends on its RNA-binding domain. Here we investigated whether endogenous RNA triggers PKR activation in response to lipid exposure. Our results indicate that snoRNAs (smal...

Global analysis of gene expression in NIH3T3 cells over-expressing RNA-dependent serine/threonine protein kinase (PKR).

PKR is an interferon induced serine/threonine protein kinase, that is activated by double stranded RNA. PKR plays an important role in the antiviral defense by interferon. In addition to its role in translation, PKR participates in several signaling pathways to transcription. The goal of this experi...

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 2 (EIF2AK2), better known as PKR plays a key role in the response to viral infections and cellular homeostasis by regulating mRNA translation. Upon binding dsRNA, PKR is activated through homodimerization and subsequent autophosphorylation on T...

Protein kinase R (PKR) is a key antiviral kinase activated by binding double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) produced during viral replication. Upon activation, PKR phosphorylates eIF2α, leading to the inhibition of translation and viral replication. However, many viruses have evolved mechanisms to counteract ...

The innate immune response against viruses mainly involves type I interferon (IFN) in mammalian cells. The exact contribution of the RNA silencing machinery remains to be established, but several recent studies indicate that the type III ribonuclease DICER can generate viral siRNAs in specific condi...

We identify that the antiviral protein kinase PKR alters glycolysis. This response is found to be independent of the kinase’s established control of gene expression that is executed through phosphorylation of the Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2. Instead, a novel substrate is recognised wi...

In mammals, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) plays roles in sequence-specific RNA interference, sequence-independent interferon response, and RNA editing by adenosine deaminases. We have previously shown that long hairpin dsRNA expression in cultured cells does not activate the interferon response, it is...
