TOR is a subjected to post-translational modifications (ubiquitination and phosphorylation), which can change the migration pattern in SDS gel
TOR (rapamycin Target of rapamycin) is an important cell growth regulator that controls development from early embryo to seed production based on nutrient availability under environmental stress conditions. It belongs to the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase family and is the target of the anti-proliferative drug rapamycin. AtTOR is expressed in embryo, endosperm and meristem. It acts by phosphorylation of downstream effectors recruited by partner RAPTOR. Inhibition of mRNA degradation and autophagy works by activating transcription, protein synthesis and ribosome biogenesis.
