“…Firstly, via direct phosphorylation of the translation regulators eukaryotic initiation factor 4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) [ 7 , 8 ] and ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (S6K1) [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. Secondly, through regulation of transcription (dependent on all three RNA polymerases) of genes coding for ribosomal proteins [ 1 , 9 , 14 ], ribosome biogenesis factors [ 15 ] and tRNAs [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ]. Apart from translation-related genes TORC1 has major positive impact on gene expression related to growth and metabolism [ 2 , 18 ] and a negative action on genes coding for proteins related to cellular stress [ 21 , 22 , 23 ].…”
