Abstract in brief

  • ISRIB works by interfering with the integrated stress response (ISR) by binding to eIF2B in a way that prevents phosphorylated eIF2 (eIF2P) from inhibiting it.
  • The molecule enhances eIF2B's activity mainly when eIF2P is present, which is part of how it reduces the stress response; this interaction is influenced by mutations that make eIF2B less sensitive to eIF2P.
  • CryoEM studies reveal that when eIF2P molecules bind to eIF2B, they cause structural changes that weaken ISRIB's binding, demonstrating that ISRIB and eIF2P compete through allosteric mechanisms to regulate eIF2B's activity.]
