Src regulates amino acid-mediated mTORC1 activation by disrupting GATOR1-Rag GTPase interaction

The growth-promoting activity of mTORC1 is regulated by amino acid availability via the Rag GTPases. Here, the authors demonstrate Src-dependent control of cell size and autophagy through disruption of the Rag GTPase–GATOR1 complex and mTORC1 activation at the lysosomal surface.
