Function | Ribosome collision sensor that plays a key role in the RNF14-RNF25 translation quality control pathway, a pathway that takes place when a ribosome has stalled during translation, and which promotes ubiquitination and degradation of translation factors on stalled ribosomes. Directly binds to the ribosome and acts as a sentinel for colliding ribosomes: activated following ribosome stalling and promotes recruitment of RNF14, which directly ubiquitinates EEF1A1/eEF1A, leading to its degradation. In addition to EEF1A1/eEF1A, the RNF14-RNF25 translation quality control pathway mediates degradation of ETF1/eRF1 and ubiquitination of ribosomal protein. GCN1 also acts as a positive activator of the integrated stress response (ISR) by mediating activation of EIF2AK4/GCN2 in response to amino acid starvation. Interaction with EIF2AK4/GCN2 on translating ribosomes stimulates EIF2AK4/GCN2 kinase activity, leading to phosphorylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF-2-alpha/EIF2S1). EIF2S1/eIF-2-alpha phosphorylation converts EIF2S1/eIF-2-alpha into a global protein synthesis inhibitor, leading to a global attenuation of cap-dependent translation, and thus to a reduced overall utilization of amino acids, while concomitantly initiating the preferential translation of ISR-specific mRNAs, such as the transcriptional activator ATF4, and hence allowing ATF4-mediated reprogramming of amino acid biosynthetic gene expression to alleviate nutrient depletion. |
