The transcription factor Xrp1 is required for PERK-mediated antioxidant gene induction in Drosophila

PERK is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane sensor that phosphorylates eIF2α to initiate the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). eIF2α phosphorylation promotes stress-responsive gene expression most notably through the transcription factor ATF4 that contains a regulatory 5’ leader. Possible PER...
