Description

phosphatidylinositol kinase-related protein kinase TOR2

Gene Summary

Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including TOR signaling; establishment or maintenance of actin cytoskeleton polarity; and positive regulation of Rho protein signal transduction. Located in fungal-type vacuole membrane and plasma membrane. Part of TORC1 complex and TORC2 complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease; kidney angiomyolipoma; lung disease (multiple); prostate cancer; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human MTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]
