Inhibits viral replication via the integrated stress response (ISR): EIF2S1\/eIF-2-alpha phosphorylation in response to viral infection converts EIF2S1\/eIF-2-alpha in a global protein synthesis inhibitor, resulting to a shutdown of cellular and viral protein synthesis, while concomitantly initiating the preferential translation of ISR-specific mRNAs, such as the transcriptional activator ATF4 (PubMed:19189853, PubMed:21123651, PubMed:22948139, PubMed:23229543). Exerts its antiviral activity on a wide range of DNA and RNA viruses including hepatitis C virus (HCV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), measles virus (MV) and herpes simplex virus 1 (HHV-1) (PubMed:11836380, PubMed:19189853, PubMed:20171114, PubMed:19840259, PubMed:21710204, PubMed:23115276, PubMed:23399035). Also involved in the regulation of signal transduction, apoptosis, cell proliferation and differentiation: phosphorylates other substrates including p53\/TP53, PPP2R5A, DHX9, ILF3, IRS1 and the HHV-1 viral protein US11 (PubMed:11836380, PubMed:22214662, PubMed:19229320). In addition to serine\/threonine-protein kinase activity, also has tyrosine-protein kinase activity and phosphorylates CDK1 at 'Tyr-4' upon DNA damage, facilitating its ubiquitination and proteosomal degradation (PubMed:20395957). Either as an adapter protein and\/or via its kinase activity, can regulate various signaling pathways (p38 MAP kinase, NF-kappa-B and insulin signaling pathways) and transcription factors (JUN, STAT1, STAT3, IRF1, ATF3) involved in the expression of genes encoding proinflammatory cytokines and IFNs (PubMed:22948139, PubMed:23084476, PubMed:23372823). Activates the NF-kappa-B pathway via interaction with IKBKB and TRAF family of proteins and activates the p38 MAP kinase pathway via interaction with MAP2K6 (PubMed:10848580, PubMed:15121867, PubMed:15229216). Can act as both a positive and negative regulator of the insulin signaling pathway (ISP) (PubMed:20685959). Negatively regulates ISP by inducing the inhibitory phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) at 'Ser-312' and positively regulates ISP via phosphorylation of PPP2R5A which activates FOXO1, which in turn up-regulates the expression of insulin receptor substrate 2 (IRS2) (PubMed:20685959). Can regulate NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and the activation of NLRP3, NLRP1, AIM2 and NLRC4 inflammasomes (PubMed:22801494). Plays a role in the regulation of the cytoskeleton by binding to gelsolin (GSN), sequestering the protein in an inactive conformation away from actin (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q03963, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10848580, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11836380, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15121867, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15229216, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18835251, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19189853, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19229320, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19507191, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19840259, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20171114, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20395957, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20685959, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21072047, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21123651, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21710204, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22214662, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22381929, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22801494, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22948139, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23084476, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23115276, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23229543, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23372823, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23399035, ECO:0000269|PubMed:32197074}.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eResearch_area\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplications\u003c\/b\u003e:ELISA\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTarget_protein\u003c\/b\u003e:EIF2AK2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReactivity\u003c\/b\u003e:Human\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAssay type\u003c\/b\u003e:Sandwich\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e:0.26ng\/ml\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDetection range\u003c\/b\u003e:0.5-150ng\/ml\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSample type\u003c\/b\u003e:Serum, plasma or other biological fluids\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFull product name\u003c\/b\u003e:Interferon-induced\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecies\u003c\/b\u003e:Human\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e:2-8ºC\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAssay time\u003c\/b\u003e:1h 30m\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUniProt accession\u003c\/b\u003e:P19525\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMASS(Da)\u003c\/b\u003e:62094\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeneID\u003c\/b\u003e:5610\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSynonyms\u003c\/b\u003e:EIF2AK2 PKR PRKR\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGene names\u003c\/b\u003e:EIF2AK2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStandard solution\u003c\/b\u003e:160ng\/ml\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GeneBio Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48648192917604,"sku":"E7462Hu","price":128900.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/8588\/9636\/files\/no_image_default_image-jpeg_d52db837-e737-44c3-95c8-5c5c622a2800.jpg?v=1782711694","url":"https:\/\/www.genebiosystems.com\/en-jp\/products\/human-interferon-induced-eif2ak2-elisa-kit","provider":"GeneBio ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
