Entrez Gene summary for RICTOR Gene:

RICTOR and MTOR (FRAP1; MIM 601231) are components of a protein complex that integrates nutrient- and growth

factor-derived signals to regulate cell growth (Sarbassov et al., 2004 (PubMed 15268862)).(supplied by OMIM, Mar

2008)

GeneCards Summary for RICTOR Gene:

RICTOR (RPTOR independent companion of MTOR, complex 2) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with RICTOR include foramen magnum meningioma, and syringomyelia. GO annotations related to this gene include ribosome binding.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: RICTR_HUMAN, Q6R327

Function: Subunit of mTORC2, which regulates cell growth and survival in response to hormonal signals. mTORC2 is

activated by growth factors, but, in contrast to mTORC1, seems to be nutrient-insensitive. mTORC2 seems to

function upstream of Rho GTPases to regulate the actin cytoskeleton, probably by activating one or more Rho-type

guanine nucleotide exchange factors. mTORC2 promotes the serum-induced formation of stress-fibers or F-actin.

mTORC2 plays a critical role in AKT1 'Ser-473' phosphorylation, which may facilitate the phosphorylation of the

activation loop of AKT1 on 'Thr-308' by PDK1 which is a prerequisite for full activation. mTORC2 regulates the

phosphorylation of SGK1 at 'Ser-422'. mTORC2 also modulates the phosphorylation of PRKCA on 'Ser-657'. Plays an

essential role in embryonic growth and development

Subunit: Part of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) which contains MTOR, MLST8, PRR5, RICTOR,

MAPKAP1 and DEPTOR. Contrary to mTORC1, mTORC2 does not bind to and is not sensitive to FKBP12-rapamycin. Binds

directly to MTOR and PRR5 within the TORC2 complex. Interacts with CCDC28B and NBN. May interact with PRR5L
