(Late Endosomal/lysosomal Adaptor, MAPK and mTOR Activator 1 (LAMTOR1))
LAMTOR1 is a 161 amino acid membrane protein belonging to the LAMTOR family. It has been identified to interact with and recruit the four Rag GTPases (Rag A-D) to the surface of lysosomes (1). The mTORC1 kinase complex is a critical component in the regulation of cell growth (2). As part of the ragulator complex, LAMTOR1 recruits the Rag GTPases and the mTORC1 complex to lysosomes, a key step in activation of the TOR signaling cascade by amino acids (3). LAMTOR1 may be involved in cholesterol homeostasis regulating LDL uptake and cholesterol release from late endosomes / lysosomes (4).
