Other name
Serine/threonine-protein kinase/endoribonuclease IRE1 (Endoplasmic reticulum-to-nucleus signaling 1) (Inositol-requiring protein 1) (hIRE1p) (Ire1-alpha) (IRE1a) [Includes: Serine/threonine-protein kinase (EC 2.7.11.1); Endoribonuclease (EC 3.1.26.-)]
Background
The protein encoded by this gene is the ER to nucleus signalling 1 protein, a human homologue of the yeast Ire1 gene product. This protein possesses intrinsic kinase activity and an endoribonuclease activity and it is important in altering gene expression as a response to endoplasmic reticulum-based stress signals.

Function
catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,cofactor:Magnesium.,enzyme regulation:The kinase domain is activated by trans-autophosphorylation. Kinase activity is required for activation of the endoribonuclease domain.,function:Senses unfolded proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum via its N-terminal domain which leads to enzyme auto-activation. The active endoribonuclease domain splices XBP1 mRNA to generate a new C-terminus, converting it into a potent unfolded-protein response transcriptional activator and triggering growth arrest and apoptosis.,PTM:Autophosphorylated.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family.,similarity:Contains 1 KEN domain.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,subunit:Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Dimer formation is driven by hydrophobic interactions within the N-terminal luminal domains
