PG - ar23 LID - 10.1091/mbc.E22-07-0302 [doi] LID - ar23 AB - The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase regulates a major signaling pathway in eukaryotic cells. In addition to regulation of mTORC1 at lysosomes, mTORC1 is also localized at other locations. However, little is known about the recruitment and activation of mTORC1 at nonlysosomal sites. To identify regulators of mTORC1 recruitment to nonlysosomal compartments, novel interacting partners with the mTORC1 subunit, Raptor, were identified using immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry. We show that one of the interacting partners, Arf5, is a novel regulator of mTORC1 signaling at plasma membrane ruffles. Arf5-GFP localizes with endogenous mTOR at PI3,4P2-enriched membrane ruffles together with the GTPase required for mTORC1 activation, Rheb. Knockdown of Arf5 reduced the recruitment of mTOR to membrane ruffles. The activation of mTORC1 at membrane ruffles was directly demonstrated using a plasma membrane-targeted mTORC1 biosensor, and Arf5 was shown to enhance the phosphorylation of the mTORC1 biosensor substrate. In addition, endogenous Arf5 was shown to be required for rapid activation of mTORC1-mediated S6 phosphorylation following nutrient starvation and refeeding. Our findings reveal a novel Arf5-dependent pathway for recruitment and activation of mTORC1 at plasma membrane ruffles, a process relevant for spatial and temporal regulation of mTORC1 by receptor and nutrient stimuli.
