Comment typeDescription
FunctionEssential component of TORC2, which regulates cell cycle-dependent polarization of the actin-cytoskeleton and cell wall integrity. TORC2 controls polarity of the actin cytoskeleton, which is required for orienting the secretory pathway toward discrete growth sites, via the RHO1/PKC1/MAPK cell integrity pathway. TSC11 may exert its functions through two distinct mechanisms, one mediated by AVO1 and the other mediated by AVO2 and SLM1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15809876}.

SubunitThe target of rapamycin complex 2 (TORC2) is composed of at least AVO1, AVO2, BIT61, LST8, TOR2 and TSC11. TORC2 likely forms a homodimer. Contrary to TORC1, TORC2 does not bind to and is not sensitive to FKBP-rapamycin. TSC11 binds to the N-terminal HEAT repeat region in TOR2 and is required for TORC2 integrity by tethering AVO1 and AVO2 to the complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12408816, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12631735, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16002396}.
