CC -!- FUNCTION: Acts as a positive activator of the gcn2 protein kinase
CC activity in response to amino acid starvation. Component of the gcn1-
CC gcn20 complex that forms a complex with gcn2 on translating ribosomes;
CC during this process, gcn1 seems to act as a chaperone to facilitate
CC delivery of uncharged tRNAs that enter the A site of ribosomes to the
CC tRNA-binding domain of gcn2, and hence stimulating gcn2 kinase
CC activity. Participates in the repression of global protein synthesis
CC and in gene-specific mRNA translation activation, such as the
CC transcriptional activator fil1, by promoting the gcn2-mediated
CC phosphorylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF-2-
CC alpha/tif211) on 'Ser-52', and hence allowing fil1-mediated
CC reprogramming of amino acid biosynthetic gene expression to alleviate
CC nutrient depletion. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P33892}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts (via N- and C-terminus) with gcn2 (via N-terminal
CC RWD domain); this interaction stimulates gcn2 kinase activity in a
CC gcn20-dependent manner in response to amino acid starvation. Interacts
CC (via C-terminus) with gcn20 (via N-terminus); this interaction
CC stimulates gcn2 kinase activity in response to amino acid starvation.
CC The gcn1-gcn20 complex interacts with gcn2 on translating ribosomes in
CC amino acid-starved cells; gcn1 may bind near the ribosomal A-site and
CC promotes the transfer of uncharged tRNAs from the A-site to the tRNA-
CC binding domain in gcn2 for its subsequent kinase activation, and hence
CC allowing fil1 translational activation and derepression of amino acid
CC biosynthetic genes. Interacts (via C-terminus) with yih1 (via N-
CC terminus); this interaction reduces the gcn1-gcn20 complex formation
CC and prevents the interaction of gcn1 with gcn2 and gcn2 kinase
CC activation in amino acid-starved cells. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P33892}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P33892}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The EF3-like region is necessary and sufficient for interaction
CC with gcn20. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P33892}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the GCN1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
