| mTORC1 kinase complex is a critical component in regulating cell growth (1,2). Its activity is modulated by energy levels, growth factors and amino acids (3,4). Recent studies found that RagA, RagB, RagC and RagD, the four related GTPases, interact with raptor in mTORC1 (1,2). |
|
| These interactions are both necessary and sufficient for mTORC1 activation in response to amino acid signals (1,2). |

| Storage and Stability | May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile 40-50% glycerol, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. |
