Gene information for EIF2AK1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27102
Official gene symbolEIF2AK1
Full nameeukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase 1
Aliases,HCR,HRI,KIAA1369,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene acts at the level of translation initiation to downregulate protein synthesis in response to stress. The encoded protein is a kinase that can be inactivated by hemin. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
