Function |
Activates the protein kinase activity of mTORC1, and thereby plays a role in the regulation of apoptosis. Stimulates the phosphorylation of S6K1 and EIF4EBP1 through activation of mTORC1 signaling. Has low intrinsic GTPase activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12271141, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12869586, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15340059, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15854902, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16098514, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20381137}.
