Reaction: EIF2AK4 (GCN2) dimer autophosphorylates

- in pathway: Response of EIF2AK4 (GCN2) to amino acid deficiency
After binding uncharged tRNA, the EIF2AK4 (GCN2) dimer trans-autophosphorylates on threonine-899, resulting in activation of the kinase domain of EIF2AK4 (Harding et al. 2000, Deng et al. 2002, Cambiaghi et al. 2014, and inferred from mouse homologs and yeast homologs).
