Akt1/PKBα, active

N-terminal 6His-tagged recombinant, human full length Akt1.

Biological information

Background
PKB (also known as c-Akt or Rac-PK) was originally identified as the transforming oncogene in a retrovirus from a spontaneous thymoma in an AKR mouse. PKB appears to be activated as a consequence of increased phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) activity in cells stimulated with mitogens. Potential targets of PKB include glycogen synthase kinase-3 and p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase. PKB is also crucial in mediating cell survival. Activation forms of both PI3 kinase and PKB have been shown to protect from apoptosis induced by withdrawal of growth and survival factors, expression of c-myc, and detachment from extracellular matrix. GenBank M63167. The recombinant protein contains the amino acid substitution S478G with respect to this accession number. This is reported inEMBL BE 206796.
