Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including arginine binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and protein sequestering activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to L-arginine; cellular response to amino acid starvation; and regulation of TORC1 signaling. Predicted to be part of GATOR2 complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Orthologous to human CASTOR1 (cytosolic arginine sensor for mTORC1 subunit 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
