Amino acids stimulate the endosome-to-Golgi trafficking through Ragulator and small GTPase Arl5 by Shi, Meng, Chen, Bing, Mahajan, Divyanshu, Boh, Boon Kim, Zhou, Yan, Dutta, Bamaprasad, Tie, Hieng Chiong, Sze, Siu Kwan, Wu, Geng, Lu, Lei

“…By testing components of the AA-stimulated mTORC1 signaling pathway, we demonstrate that SLC38A9, v-ATPase and Ragulator, but not Rag GTPases and mTORC1, are essential for the AA-stimulated trafficking. Arl5, an ARF-like family small GTPase, interacts with Ragulator in an AA-regulated manner and both Arl5 and its effector, the Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex (GARP), are required for the AA-stimulated trafficking. …”
