At1g50030: TOR (TARGET OF RAPAMYCIN)

Related to TOR proteins from yeast and mammals, regulators of cell growth in response to nutrient availability. TOR proteins belong to the family of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and are targets of the antiproliferative drug rapamycin. AtTOR binds the yeast FKBP12 protein in the presence of Rapamycin, is involved in embryogenesis and is expressed in embryos, endosperm and meristems.
