What is the function of this protein?
Promotes cell and tissue growth, maintains tissue homeostatis and controls responses to environmental stress and aging (PubMed:11069885, PubMed:11069888, PubMed:19211682, PubMed:19225150).  Regulates growth during animal development by coupling growth factor signaling to nutrient availability (PubMed:11069888).  Central regulators of autophagy (PubMed:18604198, PubMed:19225150).  May be involved in atg1 phosphorylation (PubMed:19225150).  May also be involved, directly or indirectly, in the control of neuronal function (PubMed:15454083).  Phosphorylates S6K/p70S6K, in vitro (PubMed:11069888).  May regulate the activity of S6K (PubMed:11069885).  Overexpression inhibits growth and reduces cell size (PubMed:14505573).  Affects the timing of neuronal cell differentiation (PubMed:15454083).  Hyperactivation of the signaling leads to accelerated differentiation, whereas inhibition of the signaling retards differentiation (PubMed:15454083).  Thus, in addition to controlling growth of the cell in which it resides, it can also influence growth of distant cells and organs during development via a humoral mechanism (PubMed:14505573).  As part of the TORC1 complex regulates energy homeostasis and promotes certain aspects of larval growth by negatively regulating REPTOR (PubMed:25920570).  REPTOR functions downstream of TORC1 to regulate the expression of stress response genes in response to TORC1 inhibition resulting from nutrient deprivation (PubMed:25920570).  When TORC1 activity is high it phosphorylates REPTOR which inhibits its recruitment into the nucleus and antagonizes their function (PubMed:25920570).  This function is essential under normal feeding conditions to promote TORC1-dependent growth during larval development and, in adults and larvae to prevent the REPTOR-dependent expression of nutrient stress response genes (PubMed:25920570).  In short, during development, it primarily controls growth, whereas in the adult, where there is relatively little growth, it controls aging and other aspects of nutrient-related physiology (PubMed:11069885, PubMed:11069888, PubMed:19211682, PubMed:19225150).  Rag GTPases act as activators of TORC1 in response to amino acid signals (PubMed:18604198).
