Abstract
GCN2 is a sensor of amino acid deprivation that triggers a repression of global protein synthesis while simultaneously inducing translation of specific proteins. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Guo and Cavener (2007) present a much broader role for GCN2 in controlling lipid homeostasis in response to amino acid deprivation.Entities:
