pfam11865: mTOR_dom (This model is not part of the current CDD release)
Serine/threonine-protein kinase mTOR domain
This entry represents a domain found in human serine/threonine-protein kinase mTOR and its homologues, a central regulator of cellular metabolism, growth and survival in response to hormones, growth factors, nutrients, energy and stress signals. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the TOR proteins, TOR1 and TOR2, regulate growth in a rapamycin-sensitive manner. This domain consists of HEAT repeats.
