Alterations of the mTOR signalling pathway are associated with neurodevelopmental defects. Regulators of the mTOR kinase activity are not fully described. Here, the authors show that Tanc2, a scaffolding protein, acts as a direct inhibitor of mTOR kinase activity in the developing mouse brain and cultured human neurons.
