Summary: Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including box C/D snoRNP assembly; determination of adult lifespan; and regulation of gene expression. Located in cytoplasm. Part of TORC1 complex and TORC2 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including intestine; muscle cell; neurons; pharynx; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease; kidney angiomyolipoma; lung disease (multiple); prostate cancer; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human MTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
