AAA + ATPase Thorase inhibits mTOR signaling through the disassembly of the mTOR complex 1

Signaling via the mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) maintains cellular and organismal homeostasis. Here the authors show that the AAA + ATPase Thorase binds mTOR to promote disassembly and inactivation of mTORC1 to fine tune TOR signaling according to amino acid availability.
