Whole-body and liver-specific ATF4–knockout mice are used to evaluate the role of ATF4 transcription factor in the unfolded protein response (UPR). ATF4 directs a small subset of UPR gene expression, and deletion of ATF4 in the liver triggers enhanced oxidative stress, disrupts cholesterol metabolism, and enhances cell death.
