Abstract excerpt
The RAPTOR/KOG1 proteins are binding partners of the target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase that is present in all eucaryotes and plays a central role in the stimulation of cell growth and metabolism in response to nutrients. We show in this report that two genes are coding for RAPTOR/KOG1 homologs in the Arabidopsis and rice genomes. Disruption of the Arabidopsis AtRaptor1 gene leads to a very early arrest of embryo...
