EIF2AK2 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 α kinase 2) is an intracellular protein that is also called as RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR). It belongs to the eIF2α family of protein kinases. The protein contains two RNA binding domains and a kinase domain. The PKR gene is localized on human chromosome 2p22-p21.
Immunogen
PKR antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to 14 amino acids near the carboxy terminus of human PKR.
Application
Anti-PKR antibody produced in rabbit has been used in Western Blotting.
Biochem/physiol Actions
EIF2AK2 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 α kinase 2) plays a key role in antiviral responses promoted by interferons. It is involved in stress response and inflammation pathways. EIF2AK2 controls the development and multiplication of cells, nutrient signaling and metabolism. The protein also participates in several cell regulatory pathways like antiviral activity, growth suppression, transcriptional regulation and apoptosis.

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant RNA modification, but little is known about its role in mammalian hematopoietic development. Here, we show that conditional deletion of the m6A writer METTL3 in murine fetal liver resulted in hematopoietic failure and perinatal
