Abstract
The target of rapamycin (TOR) is the central node of a highly conserved signaling network that regulates cell growth in response to nutrients, growth factors, and cellular energy. TOR is found in two functionally distinct complexes, TOR complex 1 (TORC1) and TORC2. This chapter describes the composition of yeast and mammalian TOR complexes, with special focus on the roles of structural domains and phosphorylation in TOR complex function.
