The mammalian target of rapamycin mTOR, also know as FRAP or RAFT, is a serine/ threonine protein kinase.
mTOR acts as a sensor for ATP and amino acids, balancing the availability of nutrients and cell growth.
When sufficient nutrients are available, mediated by phosphatidic acid, mTOR transmits a positive signal to p70 S6 kinase and participates in the inactivation of the eIF4E inhibitor 4E-BP1.
These events result in activation of the translation of specific mRNA subpopulations.
mTOR is phosphorylated at serine 2448 via the PI3 kinase/Akt signaling pathway and autophosphorylated at serine 2481.
