Background
PKR is an IFN-induced serine/threonine protein kinase consisting activated by dsRNA produced during viral infections, PKR plays a key role in IFN induced-innate antiviral response, virus-induced apoptosis, cell growth and differentiation. Upon activation, PKR gets autophosphorylated and catalyzes the phosphorylation of elF2 alpha subunit, which leads to an inhibition of protein synthesis. PKR induces apoptosis by up-regulating Fas expression and mediates FADD/Caspase-8 death signaling pathway. Upon viral infection, it functions as a dual protein, sequentially activating both cell survival and cell death pathways using kinase independent and dependent strategies. PRKR regulates multiple pathways which include NF-kappaB activation, p53, p38, and PDGF signaling pathway. PKR has been implicated in tumor suppression, malignancy, and several neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer, Huntington, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) .
