Abstract
In eukaryotes, many translation inhibitors have been widely used as bioprobes to evaluate the contribution of translation to signaling pathways and cellular functions. Several types of translation inhibitors are also known to trigger the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase superfamily in an intracellular mechanism called ribotoxic stress response. This perspective focuses on the biological properties of recently identified translation inhibitors that trigger ribotoxic stress response, particularly glutarimides as well as triene-ansamycins.
