catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,enzyme regulation:Activity is markedly stimulated by manganese ions. Besides dsRNA, heparin is a potent activator of the kinase. Binding to dsRNA is required for dimerization leading to autophosphorylation in the activation loop and stimulation of function. Inhibited by vaccinia virus protein E3, probably via dsRNA sequestering.,function:Following activation by double-stranded RNA in the presence of ATP, the kinase becomes autophosphorylated and can catalyze the phosphorylation of the translation initiation factor EIF2S1, which leads to an inhibition of the initiation of protein synthesis. Double-stranded RNA is generated during the course of a viral infection.,induction:By interferon.,PTM:Autophosphorylated on several Ser and Thr residues. Autophosphorylation of Thr-451 is dependent on Thr-446 and is stimulated by dsRNA bindin
