'''Ire1''' | '''Ire1''' or '''serine/threonine protein kinase/endoribonuclease Ire1'''. It is important in altering gene expression as a response to endoplasmic reticulum-based stress signals<ref>PMID:11034898</ref>. The endoribonuclase domain of Ire1 is a transcriptional activator which triggers growth arrest and apoptosis. The kinase domain of Ire1 is required for activation of the endoribonuclase domain. Ire1 senses unfolded proteins causing its auto-activation. | ||
