Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a family of phosphatidylinositol kinase-related kinases. These kinases mediate cellular responses to stresses such as DNA damage and nutrient deprivation. This protein acts as the target for the cell-cycle arrest and immunosuppressive effects of the FKBP12-rapamycin complex. The ANGPTL7 gene is located in an intron of this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1p36.22

Description of this Gene: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase

Type of Gene: protein-coding
