Loss of Tsc1 in the kidneys gives rise to rapid polycystogenesis and kidney failure due to the hyperactivation of mTOR complex I (mTORC1). One of the major downstream targets of mTORC1 is S6K1, which is responsible for driving many of the effector functions of mTOR. Strikingly, the loss of S6k1 in t...
