Supplementary information

RICTOR (Rapamycin-insensitive companion of mTOR) is an important component of the mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2) distinguished by its ability to interact with mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin). RICTOR possesses a molecular mass of approximately 192 kDa. You can find RICTOR widely expressed in various tissues including the brain liver and skeletal muscle. Researchers also refer to it as AVO3.
Biological function summary

The protein plays a significant role in cellular growth proliferation and survival. RICTOR forms part of the mTORC2 complex which is important for Akt/PKB phosphorylation. Activation of mTORC2 by RICTOR regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics and membrane trafficking. This involvement affects the control of cell metabolism and immune responses.

Pathways

RICTOR integrates into the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway influencing cell growth and survival in response to nutrients and growth factors. RICTOR as part of mTORC2 also interacts with proteins such as Sin1 and mLST8 helping regulate PKB/Akt phosphorylation at Ser473. This interaction links RICTOR's function to the insulin signaling pathway which controls aspects of glucose metabolism.

The dysregulation of RICTOR plays a role in cancer progression and metabolic disorders. Alterations in the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway can lead to the development of various cancers with RICTOR contributing to tumorigenesis through Akt activation. Additionally aberrant RICTOR expression affects insulin signaling therefore connecting it to diabetes. Through these pathways and conditions RICTOR's interaction with proteins such as mTOR illustrates its relevance in disease mechanisms and therapeutic targets.

Target data

Component of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2), which transduces signals from growth factors to pathways involved in proliferation, cytoskeletal organization, lipogenesis and anabolic output (PubMed : 15268862, PubMed : 15718470, PubMed : 19720745, PubMed : 19995915, PubMed : 21343617, PubMed : 33158864, PubMed : 35904232, PubMed : 35926713). In response to growth factors, mTORC2 phosphorylates and activates AGC protein kinase family members, including AKT (AKT1, AKT2 and AKT3), PKC (PRKCA, PRKCB and PRKCE) and SGK1 (PubMed : 19720745, PubMed : 19935711, PubMed : 19995915). In contrast to mTORC1, mTORC2 is nutrient-insensitive (PubMed : 15467718, PubMed : 21343617). Within the mTORC2 complex, RICTOR probably acts as a molecular adapter (PubMed : 21343617, PubMed : 33158864, PubMed : 35926713). RICTOR is responsible for the FKBP12-rapamycin-insensitivity of mTORC2 (PubMed : 33158864). mTORC2 plays a critical role in AKT1 activation by mediating phosphorylation of different sites depending on the context, such as 'Thr-450', 'Ser-473', 'Ser-477' or 'Thr-479', facilitating the phosphorylation of the activation loop of AKT1 on 'Thr-308' by PDPK1/PDK1 which is a prerequisite for full activation (PubMed : 15718470, PubMed : 19720745, PubMed : 19935711, PubMed : 35926713). mTORC2 catalyzes the phosphorylation of SGK1 at 'Ser-422' and of PRKCA on 'Ser-657' (By similarity). The mTORC2 complex also phosphorylates various proteins involved in insulin signaling, such as FBXW8 and IGF2BP1 (By similarity). mTORC2 acts upstream of Rho GTPases to regulate the actin cytoskeleton, probably by activating one or more Rho-type guanine nucleotide exchange factors (PubMed : 15467718). mTORC2 promotes the serum-induced formation of stress-fibers or F-actin (PubMed : 15467718).
