Rheb Binds Tuberous Sclerosis Complex 2 (TSC2) and Promotes S6 Kinase Activation in a Rapamycin- and Farnesylation-dependent Manner
Open accessAbstract
Recently the tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2) tumor suppressor gene product has been identified as a negative regulator of protein synthesis upstream of the mTOR and ribosomal S6 kinases. Because of the homology of TSC2 with GTPase-activating proteins for Rap1, we examined whether a Ras/Rap-related GTPase might be involved in this process. TSC2 was found to bind to Rheb-GTP in vitro and to reduce Rheb GTP levels in vivo. Over-expression of Rheb but not Rap1 promoted the activation of S6 kinase in a rapamycin-dependent manner, suggesting that Rheb acts upstream of mTOR. The ability of Rheb to induce S6 phosphorylation was also inhibited by a farnesyl transferase inhibitor, suggesting that Rheb may be responsible for the Ras-independent anti-neoplastic properties of this drug.

TSC1-TSC2 were unequivocally identified as inhibitors of the mTORC1 signaling pathway, specifically by virtue of TSC2 GAP activity toward the small GTPase Rheb.
“This identification of this regulatory mechanism, shown using the human proteins, unequivocally identified TSC1-TSC2 as inhibitors of the mTORC1 signaling pathway (Inoki et al., 2002; Tee et al., 2002), specifically by virtue of TSC2 GAP activity toward the small GTPase Rheb (Castro et al., 2003; Garami et al., 2003; Inoki et al., 2003; Saucedo et al., 2003;”

Rheb is known to function on endomembranes in the mTORC1 pathway as a potent activator of the kinase and is the physiologic target of TSC2.
“Despite a lack of clear experimental evidence pointing to a defined localization pattern, Rheb is known to function on endomembranes in the mTORC1 pathway as a potent activator of the kinase (Long et al., 2005; Sato et al., 2009) and is the physiologic target of TSC2 (Castro et al., 2003; Garami et al., 2003; Inoki et al., 2003; Saucedo et al., 2003; Stocker et al., 2003; Tee et al., 2003; Zhang e”

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.
