Molecular cloning and characterisation of the general control non-derepressible 2 protein kinase from Triticum aestivum

General control non-derepressible 2 (GCN2) is a kinase that functions to sense and respond to amino acid starvation. GCN2 was first identified in yeast where it senses a reduction in cellular amino acid concentration and responds by phosphorylating the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF...
