Mutations in either or the related (hamartin) gene cause tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by development of multiple, widespread non-malignant tumors (2). Tuberin is directly phosphorylated at Thr1462 by Akt\/PKB (3). Phosphorylation at Thr1462 and Tyr1571 regulates tuberin-hamartin complexes and tuberin activity (3-5). In addition, tuberin inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), which promotes inhibition of p70 S6 kinase, activation of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding protein 1 (4E-BP1, an inhibitor of translation initiation), and eventual inhibition of translation (3,6,7). p44\/42 MAPK (Erk1\/2) phosphorylates of TSC2 at Ser664 which leads to TSC1-TSC2 dissociation and considerably decreases the ability of TSC2 to inhibit mTOR signaling, cell proliferation and oncogenic transformation (8,9). Furthermore, studies have indicated that cancer patients with TSC2 phosphorylation at Ser664 may benefit from MAPK and mTOR inhibitors (10).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nFLJ43106; LAM; PPP1R160; protein phosphatase 1, regulatory subunit 160; TSC complex subunit 2; TSC2; TSC4; Tuberin; tuberous sclerosis 2; Tuberous sclerosis 2 protein\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 200\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799481143465,"sku":"40729S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-40729s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
