The mTOR pathway is a key regulator of normal brain development. Here, the authors identify de novo mutations in RHEB, an mTOR activator protein, in patients with intellectual disability associated with megalencephaly and find a role for RHEB in regulating neuronal soma size and migration in vitro and in vivo.
