Abstract
⺠The mTORC2 kinase component Protor-2 is found to interact with the mRNA destabilizing factor tristetraprolin. ⺠Modulation of Protor-2 levels specifically alters the stability of mRNAs known to be degraded by tristetraprolin. ⺠Inhibition of Protor-2 expression blocks the association of tristetraprolin with stress granules or processing bodies during stress. ⺠We conclude that Protor-2 regulates tristetraprolin mediated mRNA turnover and may link mTORC2 signaling to regulated mRNA stability.
