Model confidence (pLDDT)

The mean pLDDT of this model is 79.8 (confident overall). pLDDT is AlphaFold's per-residue confidence score from 0 to 100. In MolViewer, choose the B-factor color scheme to color the model by pLDDT, because AlphaFold stores it in the B-factor column.

What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Negative regulator of the mTORC1 and mTORC2 complexes: inhibits the protein kinase activity of MTOR, thereby inactivating both complexes (PubMed:19446321, PubMed:22017875, PubMed:22017876, PubMed:22017877, PubMed:25936805, PubMed:29382726, PubMed:34519268, PubMed:34519269). DEPTOR inhibits mTORC1 and mTORC2 to induce autophagy (PubMed:22017875, PubMed:22017876, PubMed:22017877). In contrast to AKT1S1/PRAS40, only partially inhibits mTORC1 activity (PubMed:34519268, PubMed:34519269)

Subunit structure

Associated component of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) which contains MTOR, MLST8 and RPTOR (PubMed:19446321, PubMed:25936805, PubMed:34519268, PubMed:34519269). Associated component of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) which contains MTOR, MLST8, PROTOR1, RICTOR, MAPKAP1 and DEPTOR (PubMed:19446321, PubMed:34519268). Interacts (via PDZ domain) with…
