More importantly, Akt phosphorylates and inactivates tu-
berin (TSC2), an inhibitor of mTOR within the mTOR-raptor
complex (18). Inhibition of mTOR stops the protein synthesis
machinery due to inactivation of its effector, p70 S6 kinase
and activation of the eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding
protein 1 (4E-EP1), an inhibitor of translation (18,19).
