Function:

While the intricate functions of the ragulator complex are not fully understood, it is known that the ragulator complex associates with the lysosome and plays a key role in mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) signaling regulation. mTOR signaling is sensitive to amino acid concentrations in the cytoplasm of the cell, and the ragulator complex works to detect amino acid concentration and transmit signals that activate, or inhibit, mTORC1.
