Abstract

Signaling by insulin and target of rapamycin are both required for cell growth, but their interrelationships remain poorly defined. It was reported that Akt, an essential component of the insulin pathway, stimulates growth by phosphorylating and inhibiting tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2). Here we evaluate this model genetically in Drosophila by engineering Tsc2 mutants in which the Akt phosphorylation sites are changed to nonphosphorylatable or phospho-mimicking residues. Strikingly, such mutants completely rescue the lethality and cell growth defects of Tsc2-null mutants. Taken together, our data suggest that Tsc2 is not a critical substrate of Akt in normal Drosophila development.

摘要

胰岛素信号传导和雷帕霉素靶蛋白对于细胞生长均是必需的,但其相互关系仍不清楚。据报道,Akt作为胰岛素途径的一个重要组成部分,通过磷酸化并抑制结节性硬化复合物2(TSC2)来刺激生长。在此,我们通过构建Akt磷酸化位点被改变为不可磷酸化或磷酸化模拟残基的Tsc2突变体,在果蝇中对该模型进行遗传学评估。令人惊讶的是,这类突变体完全挽救了Tsc2基因敲除突变体的致死性和细胞生长缺陷。综上所述,我们的数据表明,在正常果蝇发育过程中,Tsc2不是Akt的关键底物。
