Gene Summary

Enables GDP-dissociation inhibitor activity and PH domain binding activity. Involved in several processes, including DNA damage response, signal transduction by p53 class mediator; negative regulation of TORC1 signaling; and negative regulation of translation in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including D-glucose import; positive regulation of metabolic process; and regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Part of TORC2 complex and nucleotide-activated protein kinase complex. Is expressed in central nervous system; heart; and retina. Orthologous to human SESN2 (sestrin 2).
