Abstract excerpt
Targets of rapamycin (TORs) are conserved phosphatidylinositol kinase-related kinases that are involved in the coordination between nutritional or mitogenic signals and cell growth. Here we report the initial characterization of two Schizosaccharomyces pombe TOR homologs, tor1(+) and tor2(+). tor2(+) is an essential gene, whereas tor1(+) is required only under starvation and other stress conditions. Specifically,...
