Revealing YBR238C's involvement in the TORC1–mitochondria feedback loop deepens our understanding of aging biology, emphasizing the TOMITO concept as a crucial mechanism in cellular aging regulation.
Sin1, a regulatory subunit of TOR protein kinase, has an evolutionarily conserved domain that specifically binds and recruits substrate for phosphorylation, and may represent a potential target for anti-cancer drugs.
