Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We purified and identified the binding proteins of mTOR inhibitors from renal cell carcinoma cells. Beta-actin, RPS18, C1QBP, and PHB were identified as the binding proteins of mTOR inhibitors. Knockdown of C1QBP or PHB1 did not affect cell growth inhibition by mTOR inhibitors in renal cell carcinoma cells. These results suggest that mTOR inhibitors bind to C1QBP and PHB1, but these binding proteins do not affect cell growth inhibition by mTOR inhibitors.
