Abstract excerpt
Tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2), whose gene is frequently mutated in tuberous sclerosis, increases the guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) activity of the small heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein (G protein) Rheb, thus resulting in the decreased activity of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), the master regulator of cell growth. Here, we describe the development of a nuclear magnetic resonance...
