LST8-1

Gene
LST8-1
Protein
Target of rapamycin complex subunit LST8-1
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
305 amino acids
Function
Component of TORC1 complex, which is an essential cell growth regulator that controls plant development. Acts by activating transcription, protein synthesis and ribosome biogenesis, and inhibiting mRNA degradation and autophagy (Probable). Involved in regulating amino acid accumulation and the synthesis of myo-inositol and raffinose during plant adaptation to long days (PubMed:22307851). Involved in the regulation of plant growth and abscisic acid (ABA) accumulation. Acts as positive regulation of the ABA biosynthetic genes ZEP, NCED3 and AAO3, and negative regulator of the ABA catabolic genes CYP707A2 and CYP707A3 (PubMed:26459592).
Similarity
Belongs to the WD repeat LST8 family.
