"The results are as follows : (i) Both hemin and p67 inhibited HRI (heme regulated protein synthesis inhibitor) and dsI (double stranded RNA activated protein synthesis inhibitor) catalyzed phosphorylation of eIF-2 alpha-subunit in vitro."

reach
"It was interesting to observe that hemin downregulated HRI promoter activity in a dose dependent manner."

reach
"Most recently, Hsp70 has been shown to prevent the activation of HRI in hems deficiency by reducing the optimal concentration of hemin required to suppress HRI activatian2s."

reach
"We conclude that disulfide formation by hemin provides a likely mechanism by which hemin prevents the activation and inhibits the activity of HRI."

reach
"Contrary to this, hemin, a suppressor of HRI kinase activity, downregulated HRI promoter activity and stimulated hemoglobin synthesis."

reach
"Delayed addition of hemin to shut-off lysates inhibits the eIF-2alpha kinase activity of HRI and restores protein synthesis; under those conditions, the endogenous phosphatase of the lysate dephosphorylates phosphorylated eIF-2alpha and restores eIF-2B activity."
