Overexpression of Tobacco GCN2 Stimulates Multiple Physiological Changes Associated With Stress Tolerance

Overexpression of Tobacco GCN2 Stimulates Multiple Physiological Changes Associated With Stress Tolerance

General control non-derepressible-2 (GCN2) is a ubiquitous protein kinase that phosphorylates the α subunit of the eukaryotic initiation factor, eIF2, preventing the initiation of a new cycle of protein synthesis, subsequently reducing the global protein biosynthesis. GCN2 can also regulate the resp...
