Function | Guanine nucleotide-binding protein that plays a crucial role in the cellular response to amino acid availability through regulation of the mTORC1 signaling cascade (PubMed:20381137, PubMed:24095279, PubMed:27234373, PubMed:31601764, PubMed:31601708, PubMed:32612235, PubMed:36697823). Forms heterodimeric Rag complexes with RagA/RRAGA or RagB/RRAGB and cycles between an inactive GTP-bound and an active GDP- bound form: RagC/RRAGC is in its active form when GDP-bound RagC/RRAGC forms a complex with GTP-bound RagA/RRAGA (or RagB/RRAGB) and in an inactive form when GTP-bound RagC/RRAGC heterodimerizes with GDP-bound RagA/RRAGA (or RagB/RRAGB) (PubMed:24095279, PubMed:32868926, PubMed:31601764, PubMed:31601708). In its GDP-bound active form, promotes the recruitment of mTORC1 to the lysosomes and its subsequent activation by the GTPase RHEB (PubMed:20381137, PubMed:24095279, PubMed:27234373, PubMed:32612235, PubMed:32612235, PubMed:36697823). This is a crucial step in the activation of the MTOR signaling cascade by amino acids (PubMed:20381137, PubMed:24095279, PubMed:27234373). Also plays a central role in the non-canonical mTORC1 complex, which acts independently of RHEB and specifically mediates phosphorylation of MiT/TFE factors TFEB and TFE3: GDP-bound RagC/RRAGC mediates recruitment of MiT/TFE factors TFEB and TFE3 (PubMed:32612235, PubMed:36697823). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Lysosome membrane Note=Predominantly cytoplasmic (PubMed:11073942). Recruited to the lysosome surface by the Ragulator complex (PubMed:20381137, PubMed:28935770). May shuttle between the cytoplasm and nucleus, depending on the bound nucleotide state of associated RRAGA (PubMed:11073942). |

Background
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein forming heterodimeric Rag complexes required for the amino acid-induced relocalization of mTORC1 to the lysosomes and its subsequent activation by the GTPase RHEB. This is a crucial step in the activation of the TOR signaling cascade by amino acids.
