Function

Involved in the control of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity which regulates cell growth and survival, and autophagy in response to nutrient and hormonal signals; functions as a scaffold for recruiting mTORC1 substrates. mTORC1 is activated in response to growth factors or amino acids. Growth factor-stimulated mTORC1 activation involves a AKT1-mediated phosphorylation of TSC1-TSC2, which leads to the activation of the RHEB GTPase that potently activates the protein kinase activity of mTORC1. Amino acid-signaling to mTORC1 requires its relocalization to the lysosomes mediated by the Ragulator complex and the Rag GTPases. Activated mTORC1 up-regulates protein synthesis by phosphorylating key regulators of mRNA translation and ribosome synthesis. mTORC1 phosphorylates EIF4EBP1 and releases it from inhibiting the elongation initiation factor 4E (eiF4E). mTORC1 phosphorylates and activates S6K1 at 'Thr-389', which then promotes protein synthesis by phosphorylating PDCD4 and targeting it for degradation. Involved in ciliogenesis. mTORC1 complex in excitatory neuronal transmission is required for the prosocial behavior induced by the psychoactive substance lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) (By similarity).

Activity summary

Raptor short for Regulatory-associated protein of mTOR functions as an important component of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Raptor itself has a molecular mass of around 150 kDa. It is expressed in many tissues with high levels found in muscle liver and brain. Raptor plays a mechanical role as a scaffolding protein which facilitates the recruitment of substrates to mTORC1 and regulates its activity. By binding with mTOR and other components Raptor ensures proper signaling involving growth factors energy levels and nutrient availability.

Biological function summary

Raptor serves as an essential part of cell growth and proliferation by being a constituent of the mTORC1 complex. This complex is sensitive to nutrients energy oxygen and stress signals allowing cells to adjust their functions based on environmental conditions. Raptor aids mTORC1 in translating these cellular inputs into appropriate responses such as protein synthesis and autophagy inhibition. It therefore plays a pivotal role in coordinating cellular adaptation and homeostasis.

Pathways

The mTOR signaling which involves Raptor is significant for the regulation of cell growth and metabolism. The two main pathways where Raptor shows importance are the PI3K/AKT/mTOR and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathways. Raptor interacts with other proteins like Akt and TSC2 providing a link between growth factor signals and cellular metabolic processes. These interactions help balance energy consumption and storage maintaining cellular and organismal energy stability.

Associated diseases and disorders

Raptor has links to cancer and type 2 diabetes. Aberrant mTORC1 activity influenced by dysregulation of Raptor contributes to tumorigenesis through uncontrolled cell proliferation. Similarly alterations in Raptor function affect insulin signaling pathways leading to metabolic disturbances observed in type 2 diabetes. In both contexts Raptor interacts with proteins like TSC1 and PRAS40 further influencing disease progression and therapeutic outcomes.
