Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a key player at the synapse regulating local translation and long-lasting synaptic plasticity. Now, a new study by Sosanya et al. (2013. J. Cell Biol. ) investigates the molecular mechanism of how mTOR suppresses local protein synthesis of a key potassium channel at activated synapses.
