Function
Following activation by double-stranded RNA in the presence of ATP, the kinase becomes autophosphorylated and can catalyze the phosphorylation of the translation initiation factor EIF2S1, which leads to an inhibition of the initiation of protein synthesis. Double-stranded RNA is generated during the course of a viral infection. In addition to serine/threonine-protein kinase activity, also has tyrosine-protein kinase activity: phosphorylates CDK1 upon DNA damage. CDK1 phosphorylation triggers CDK1 polyubiquitination and subsequent proteolysis, thus leading to G2 arrest
Tissue Specificity
A synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Thr451 of human PKR (Interferon-inducible RNA-dependent protein kinase) was used as immunogen. The antibody only detects PKR phosphorylated on Threonine 451.
