Translational regulation of growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible gene GADD34 via its 5' untranslated region upstream open reading frame during eukaryotic initiation factor 2 alpha phosphorylation

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates an integrated stress response which causes inhibition of overall protein synthesis via phosphorylation of the eukaryotic initiation factor 2alpha (eIF2alpha). However, ER stress also results in selective translation of mRNAs, one of which is a transcriptio...
