Description | Specificity: Mouse, rat, and human AKT. Akt1, also known as Protein kinase B, is a serine/threonine kinase that is at the center of many signal transduction pathways. Akt1 regulates glucose metabolism, transcription, apoptosis, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and cell motility (1). The activation of Akt1 occurs downstream of PI-3K, which upon activation by an extracellular molecule, generates PIP (3) (2). PIP (3) is a lipid second messenger that promotes the translocation of Akt1 to the plasma membrane via PH (pleckstrin-homology) domain binding (2-4). At the plasma membrane Akt1 is phosphorylated and activated by PDK-1 at its catalytic site on residue Thr308 (1). Residue Ser473 is also phosphorylated at this time but the kinase has not y |
