Sugar phosphate activation of the stress sensor eIF2B
The activity of translation initiation factor eIF2B is known to be modulated through stress-responsive phosphorylation of its substrate eIF2. Here, the authors uncover the regulation of eIF2B by the binding of sugar phosphates, suggesting a link between nutrient status and the rate of protein synthe...
