Viral modulation of UPRER controlled cell death pathways. Viruses and viral proteins use all the three UPRER sensor proteins for modulating cell death. The Ire1α-TRAF2-JNK signalling arm is used to promote apoptotic cell death. Several viruses promote ER stress dependent apoptosis via the caspase cascade. The PERK and ATF6 arms of the UPRER are targeted for the induction of autophagy via the CHOP transcription factor.
