[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PRKRA_HUMAN PRKRA_HUMAN] Defects in PRKRA are the cause of dystonia type 16 (DYT16) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/612067 612067]. DYT16 is an early-onset dystonia-parkinsonism disorder. Dystonia is defined by the presence of sustained involuntary muscle contraction, often leading to abnormal postures. DYT16 patients have progressive, generalized dystonia with axial muscle involvement, oro-mandibular (sardonic smile) and laryngeal dystonia and, in some cases, parkinsonian features.<ref>PMID:18243799</ref> <ref>PMID:18420150</ref>

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PRKRA_HUMAN PRKRA_HUMAN] Activates EIF2AK2/PKR in the absence of double stranded RNA (dsRNA), leading to phosphorylation of EIF2S1/EFI2-alpha and inhibition of translation and induction of apoptosis. Required for siRNA production by DICER1 and for subsequent siRNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing. Does not seem to be required for processing of pre-miRNA to miRNA by DICER1.<ref>PMID:9687506</ref> <ref>PMID:10336432</ref> <ref>PMID:11238927</ref> <ref>PMID:16424907</ref> <ref>PMID:16982605</ref> <ref>PMID:17452327</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
 +
The innate immune sensor PKR for double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is critical for antiviral defense, but its aberrant activation by cellular dsRNA is linked to various diseases. The dsRNA-binding protein PACT plays a critical yet controversial role in this pathway. We show that PACT directly suppresses PKR activation by endogenous dsRNA ligands, such as inverted-repeat Alu RNAs, which robustly activate PKR in the absence of PACT. Instead of competing for dsRNA binding, PACT prevents PKR from scanning along dsRNA-a necessary step for PKR molecules to encounter and phosphorylate each other for activation. While PKR favors longer dsRNA for increased co-occupancy and scanning-mediated activation, longer dsRNA is also more susceptible to PACT-mediated regulation due to increased PACT-PKR co-occupancy. Unlike viral inhibitors that constitutively suppress PKR, this RNA-dependent mechanism allows PACT to fine-tune PKR activation based on dsRNA length and quantity, ensuring self-tolerance without sequestering most cellular dsRNA.
