Summary
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to L-arginine and negative regulation of TORC1 signaling. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of GATOR2 complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Orthologous to several human genes including CASTOR2 (cytosolic arginine sensor for mTORC1 subunit 2).

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.
