High impact information on PEK

  • Furthermore, the stable complexes between wild-type DPERK and DPERK-K671R mutant were mediated through the N terminus of the proteins and exhibited an in vitro eIF2alpha kinase activity [1].
  • During embryogenesis, DPERK expression becomes concentrated in the endodermal cells of the gut and in the germ line precursor cells [1].
