Mutations in this gene have been associated with dystonia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: Activates EIF2AK2/PKR in the absence of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), leading to phosphorylation of EIF2S1/EFI2-alpha and inhibition of translation and induction of apoptosis. Required for siRNA production by DICER1 and for subsequent siRNA-mediated post- transcriptional gene silencing. Does not seem to be required for processing of pre-miRNA to miRNA by DICER1. Promotes UBC9-p53/TP53 association and sumoylation and phosphorylation of p53/TP53 at 'Lys-386' at 'Ser-392' respectively and enhances its activity in a EIF2AK2/PKR-dependent manner (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10336432, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11238927, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16424907, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16982605, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17452327, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9687506}. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |dsrm| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |pre-miRNA binding| |RISC-loading complex| |outer ear morphogenesis| |production of siRNA involved in RNA interference| |pre-miRNA processing| |RNA interference| |middle ear morphogenesis| |miRNA metabolic process| |production of miRNAs involved in gene silencing by miRNA| |production of small RNA involved in gene silencing by RNA| |dsRNA processing| |enzyme activator activity| |gene silencing by miRNA| |posttranscriptional gene silencing by RNA| |posttranscriptional gene silencing| |positive regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway| |double-stranded RNA binding| |gene silencing by RNA| |ear morphogenesis| |gene silencing| |regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway| |positive regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway| |protein stabilization| |ear development| |regulation of gene expression, epigenetic| |skeletal system morphogenesis| |cellular response to oxidative stress| |sensory organ morphogenesis| |response to virus| |regulation of protein stability| |embryonic organ morphogenesis| |enzyme binding| |ncRNA processing| |response to oxidative stress| |regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway| |embryonic organ development| |ncRNA metabolic process| |skeletal system development| |posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression| |sensory organ development| |embryonic morphogenesis| |positive regulation of apoptotic process| |positive regulation of programmed cell death| |negative regulation of cell population proliferation| |perinuclear region of cytoplasm| |positive regulation of cell death| |viral process| |symbiotic process| |interspecies interaction between organisms| |RNA processing| |protein homodimerization activity| |animal organ morphogenesis| |protein phosphorylation| |embryo development| |positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |identical protein binding| |phosphorylation| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |RNA binding| |positive regulation of catalytic activity| |regulation of apoptotic process| |regulation of programmed cell death| |regulation of cell population proliferation| |positive regulation of signal transduction| |RNA metabolic process| |regulation of cell death| |cellular response to stress| |negative regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of molecular function| |positive regulation of cell communication| |positive regulation of signaling| |regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |immune response| |membrane| |gene expression| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp376|Losmapimod 1μM R07 exp376]]|1.73| |[[:results:exp77|Prochlorperazine 5.2μM R02 exp77]]|1.75| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 181/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|10/28| |blood|1/28| |bone|8/26| |breast|9/33| |central nervous system|18/56| |cervix|2/4| |colorectal|5/17| |esophagus|5/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|1/16| |kidney|1/21| |liver|2/20| |lung|19/75| |lymphocyte|4/16| |ovary|5/26| |pancreas|11/24| |peripheral nervous system|6/16| |plasma cell|1/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|9/24| |soft tissue|2/9| |thyroid|2/2| |upper aerodigestive|8/22| |urinary tract|3/29| |uterus|1/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 11216 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: 5.36 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='PRKRA Expression in NALM6 Cells: 5.36'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2026/01/07 22:36by 127.0.0.1
