Mechanisms of mTORC1 activation by RHEB and inhibition by PRAS40
Open accessAbstract
The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) controls cell growth and metabolism in response to nutrients, energy levels, and growth factors. It contains the atypical kinase mTOR and the RAPTOR subunit that binds to the Tor signalling sequence (TOS) motif of substrates and regulators. mTORC1 is activated by the small GTPase RHEB (Ras homologue enriched in brain) and inhibited by PRAS40. Here we present the 3.0 ångström cryo-electron microscopy structure of mTORC1 and the 3.4 ångström structure of activated RHEB-mTORC1. RHEB binds to mTOR distally from the kinase active site, yet causes a global conformational change that allosterically realigns active-site residues, accelerating catalysis. Cancer-associated hyperactivating mutations map to structural elements that maintain the inactive state, and we provide biochemical evidence that they mimic RHEB relieving auto-inhibition. We also present crystal structures of RAPTOR-TOS motif complexes that define the determinants of TOS recognition, of an mTOR FKBP12-rapamycin-binding (FRB) domain-substrate complex that establishes a second substrate-recruitment mechanism, and of a truncated mTOR-PRAS40 complex that reveals PRAS40 inhibits both substrate-recruitment sites. These findings help explain how mTORC1 selects its substrates, how its kinase activity is controlled, and how it is activated by cancer-associated mutations.

Cross-linking of mTORC1 in the presence of RhebGTPgS and 4EBP1 yielded the cryo-EM structure of mTORC1 bound to Rheb.
“Cross-linking of mTORC1 in the presence of RhebGTPgS and 4EBP1, another well-known mTORC1 substrate (Burnett et al., 1998), yielded the cryo-EM structure of mTORC1 bound to Rheb (Yang et al., 2017).”
From Signal integration in the (m)TORC1 growth pathway (2018) · cites this paper as Yang et al., 2017
Density corresponding to Rheb was observed at the N-terminal portions of the N-HEAT, M-HEAT and FAT domains, resulting in a four-way interface where Rheb switch I residues bound the M-HEAT solenoid and FAT domain, and switch II formed contacts with all three mTORC1 domains.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
