Human Gene Set: GOBP_INTEGRATED_STRESS_RESPONSE_SIGNALING

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_INTEGRATED_STRESS_RESPONSE_SIGNALING

Standard name GOBP_INTEGRATED_STRESS_RESPONSE_SIGNALING
Systematic name M40536
Brief description The series of molecular signals generated in response to diverse stress stimuli required to restore cellular homeostasis. The core event in this pathway is the phosphorylation of eIF2 alpha by one of four members of the eIF2a kinase family (EIF2AK1/HRI, EIF2AK2/PKR, EIF2AK3/PERK and EIF2AK4/GCN2), which leads to a decrease in global protein synthesis and the induction of selected genes, including the transcription factor ATF4, that together promote cellular recovery.
