Rheb Binds and Regulates the mTOR Kinase
BACKGROUND The target of rapamycin (TOR), in complex with the proteins raptor and LST8 (TOR complex 1), phosphorylates the p70S6K and 4E-BP1 to promote mRNA translation. Genetic evidence establishes that TOR complex activity in vivo requires the small GTPase Rheb, and overexpression of Rheb can rescue TOR from inactivation in vivo by amino-acid withdrawal. The Tuberous Sclerosis heterodimer (TS...
متن کاملmTOR regulates phagosome and entotic vacuole fission
Macroendocytic vacuoles formed by phagocytosis, or the live-cell engulfment program entosis, undergo sequential steps of maturation, leading to the fusion of lysosomes that digest internalized cargo. After cargo digestion, nutrients must be exported to the cytosol, and vacuole membranes must be processed by mechanisms that remain poorly defined. Here we find that phagosomes and entotic vacuoles...
متن کاملCDK Phosphorylation of Drc1 Regulates DNA Replication in Fission Yeast
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are absolutely required for DNA replication in eukaryotic cells. CDKs are thought to activate one or more replication factors, but the identities of these proteins are unknown. Here we describe fission yeast Drc1, a protein required for DNA replication that is phosphorylated by Cdc2. Drc1 depletion leads to catastrophic mitotic divisions with incompletely replica...
متن کاملNeurofibromatosis-1 regulates mTOR-mediated astrocyte growth and glioma formation in a TSC/Rheb-independent manner.
Converging evidence from the analysis of human brain tumors and genetically engineered mice has revealed that the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway is a central regulator of glial and glioma cell growth. In this regard, mutational inactivation of neurofibromatosis-1 (NF1), tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), and PTEN genes is associated with glioma formation, such that pharmacologic in...
متن کاملConserved Ribonuclease, Eri1, Negatively Regulates Heterochromatin Assembly in Fission Yeast
RNA interference (RNAi) is a conserved silencing mechanism that has widespread roles in RNA degradation, translational repression, and the epigenetic control of chromatin structure [1]. In fission yeast, heterochromatin assembly requires RNAi machinery and is initiated by small interference RNAs (siRNAs) derived from heterochromatic regions and by the RNA-induced transcriptional silencing (RITS...
