The NPRL2 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is part of a larger protein group (a complex) called GATOR1. This complex is made up of the NPRL2 protein and proteins made from two other genes: DEPDC5 and NPRL3. GATOR1 is found in cells throughout the body, where it regulates a signaling pathway called the mTOR pathway. The mTOR pathway is involved in cell growth and division (proliferation) and the creation (synthesis) of new proteins. In the brain, the mTOR pathway regulates many processes, including the growth and development of nerve cells and their ability to change and adapt over time (plasticity).

The NPRL2 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is part of a larger protein group (a complex) called GATOR1. This complex is made up of the NPRL2 protein and proteins made from two other genes: DEPDC5 and NPRL3. GATOR1 is found in cells throughout the body, where it regulates a signaling pathway called the mTOR pathway. The mTOR pathway is involved in cell growth and division (proliferation) and the creation (synthesis) of new proteins. In the brain, the mTOR pathway regulates many processes, including the growth and development of nerve cells and their ability to change and adapt over time (plasticity).
The role of the GATOR1 complex is to block this pathway by stopping (inhibiting) the activity of a complex called mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) that is integral to the mTOR pathway.

Vaccinazione contro il virus respiratorio sinciziale (RSV)
Around 20 to 30 children a year die from RSV infections in the UK. RSV infection also causes more severe lung infections in older people, and often causes them to be admitted to hospital. The RSV vaccine used in the UK is Abrysvo. This is a subunit vaccine, which means it contains purified parts of the RSV virus. The vaccine trains the immune.
