Illness finder is a diagnostic medicine tool for educational purpose that looks up your patients' health conditions or symptoms and diagnosis and find diseases or illnesses based on chosen gender, age, risk factors, illness, signs, symptoms and prevalence. Illnessfinder is inspired by Evidence based medicine (EMB) and healthcare that aims to apply the best (most reliable) knowledge that is available at decision time. Illnessfinder aims to free up time for the therapeutic dialogue and ensure quality at the evidence based practice, uniting proven medical findings and clinical evidence with systematised data technology.

Description
eIF-2 Kinase: A dsRNA-activated cAMP-independent protein serine/threonine kinase that is induced by interferon. In the presence of dsRNA and ATP, the kinase autophosphorylates on several serine and threonine residues. The phosphorylated enzyme catalyzes the phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of EUKARYOTIC INITIATION FACTOR-2, leading to the inhibition of protein synthesis.
