Translational induction of ATF4 during integrated stress response requires noncanonical initiation factors eIF2D and DENR

Translation of ATF4 mRNA is stimulated during the integrated stress response. Here the authors show that two noncanonical translation initiation factors eIF2D and DENR are required for translational induction of ATF4 mRNA in Drosophila and human cells.
