Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including 14-3-3 protein binding activity; enzyme binding activity; and protein kinase regulator activity. Involved in several processes, including TORC1 signaling; negative regulation of insulin secretion; and positive regulation of cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic stress granule; lysosome; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of TORC1 complex. Predicted to be active in lysosomal membrane. Predicted to colocalize with dendrite and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; early conceptus; endocrine gland; genitourinary system; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nicotine dependence. Orthologous to human RPTOR (regulatory associated protein of MTOR complex 1).
