Description | Description: Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase 3, also known as protein kinase R (PKR)-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the EIF2AK3 gene. The protein encoded by this gene phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation-initiation factor 2, leading to its inactivation, and thus to a rapid reduction of translational initiation and repression of global protein synthesis. This protein is thought to modulate mitochondrial function. It is a type I membrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it is induced by ER stress caused by malfolded proteins. Mutations in this gene are associated with Wolcott-Rallison syndrome. Protein Function: Metab |
Immunogen | Immunogen: E Coli-derived human PERK recombinant protein (Position: R222-Q334). Subcellular Localization: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Tissue Specificity: Ubiquitous. A high level expression is seen in secretory tissues. |
