Analysis of the regulatory motifs in eukaryotic initiation factor 4E‐binding protein 1
2 Apr 2008
Abstract excerpt
Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) phosphorylates proteins such as eukaryotic initiation factor 4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) and the S6 kinases. These substrates contain short sequences, termed TOR signalling (TOS) motifs, which interact with the mTORC1 component raptor. Phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 requires an additional feature, termed the RAIP motif (Arg-Ala-Ile-Pro). We have analysed the...
