Summary
ERN2 (endoplasmic reticulum to nucleus signaling 2, HGNC:16942) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16p12.2, encoding Serine/threonine-protein kinase/endoribonuclease IRE2 (Q76MJ5). Induces translational repression through 28S ribosomal RNA cleavage in response to ER stress.
Enables several functions, including ATP binding activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including apoptotic chromosome condensation; negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and rRNA catabolic process. Located in cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 8)
- The structural, biochemical, and functional studies in vivo altogether demonstrate that IRE1 and PERK have conserved a common molecular interface necessary and sufficient for dimerization and unfolded protein response (UPR) signaling. (PMID:16973740)
- RNase domain of IRE1 determines the functional specificities of each of these isoforms. (PMID:18242182)
- Data show that IRE1beta represses translation on the ER membrane but not in the cytosol, and that this selective repression depends on the RNase activity of IRE1beta. (PMID:21146530)
- The luminal event mediated by IRE1beta involves direct interaction with unfolded proteins rather than association/dissociation with BiP. (PMID:23236464)
- ER stress-regulated IRE1 dependent decay is involved in regulation of hepatic diseases. (review) (PMID:27774654)
- A positive feedback bistable ERN2-XBP1S pathway regulates MUC5B-dominated mucus obstruction in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), providing an unfolded protein response-dependent mechanism linking the MUC5B promoter rs35705950 polymorphism with IPF pathogenesis. (PMID:30973754)
- IRE1beta acts as a dominant-negative suppressor of IRE1alpha and affect how barrier epithelial cells manage the response to stress at the host-environment interface. (PMID:31985747)
- EEF1A2 and ERN2 could potentially discriminate metastatic status of mediastinal lymph node in lung adenocarcinomas harboring EGFR 19Del/L858R mutations. (PMID:32881299)

Function. Induces translational repression through 28S ribosomal RNA cleavage in response to ER stress. Pro-apoptotic. Appears to play no role in the unfolded-protein response, unlike closely related proteins.
Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane.
Post-translational modifications. Autophosphorylated.
Activity regulation. The kinase domain is activated by trans-autophosphorylation. Kinase activity is required for activation of the endoribonuclease domain.
Similarity. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family.
