title: EIF-2 kinase
text: eIF-2-alpha kinase is a kinase enzyme that phosphorylates eIF2α. There are four forms in mammals: EIF2AK1: heme-regulated inhibitor kinase (HRI) EIF2AK2: the double-stranded RNA-dependent kinase EIF2AK3: also known as "PKR-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase" (PEK/PERK) EIF2AK4: also known as GCN2 These are all responsible for the phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of eIF-2 at serine 51, one of the best-characterized mechanisms for down-regulating protein synthesis in eukaryotes as a part of cel
