About MTOR

Target information is kept separate from product-level validation so you can review the biology and the reagent evidence independently.

Biology

Biological function

Mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase (mTOR/MTOR) is the catalytic kinase of mTORC1 and mTORC2. These complexes integrate nutrient, energy and growth-factor signals to regulate processes including protein synthesis, cell growth, metabolism, survival and cytoskeletal organisation.

Experimental context

Research context

MTOR is widely studied in nutrient sensing, growth-factor signalling, metabolism, protein synthesis, autophagy and mTORC1/mTORC2 pathway biology. Review the linked ABMIUM research products and confirm species, sample type, assay format, application and product-level validation.
