Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic condition causing tumours with differentiation abnormalities; however the molecular mechanisms causing these defects are unclear. Here the authors show that Notch cooperates with Rheb to block cell differentiation forming a regulatory loop that could underlie TSC tumorigenesis.
