Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable leucine binding activity and oxidoreductase activity, acting on peroxide as acceptor. Involved in several processes, including TORC2 signaling; regulation of signal transduction; and response to insulin. Acts upstream of or within regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signal transduction. Part of TORC2 complex. Is expressed in brain; cortical plate; and embryo. Orthologous to human SESN3 (sestrin 3).
