    Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 8:613-21. 2007
    ..Although poorly characterized in mammals, several components of the Hippo pathway seem to be tumour suppressors in humans...

    Nat Cell Biol 5:578-81. 2003
    ..Point mutations in the GAP domain of Tsc2 disrupted its ability to regulate Rheb without affecting the ability of Tsc2 to form a complex with Tsc1. Our studies identify Rheb as a molecular target of the TSC tumour suppressors...

    Nat Cell Biol 5:566-71. 2003
    ..Levels of rheb mRNA are rapidly induced in response to protein starvation, and overexpressed Rheb can drive cell growth in starved animals, suggesting a role for Rheb in the nutritional control of cell growth...
