The AKT1 (AKT serine/threonine kinase 1) gene is also called as v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 1 and PKBα (protein kinase B). It is upregulated in liver, muscle and adipocytes. AKT1 gene is mapped to human chromosome 14q32. It is a member of AKT family that has an amino-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a short α-helical linker and a carboxyl-terminal kinase domain.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Akt around the phosphorylation site of Tyr474.
Immunogen Range: 431-480
Biochem/physiol Actions
The protein encoded by AKT1 (AKT serine/threonine kinase 1) gene controls the survival of cells and anti-apoptotic actions that attack the pathogenesis of several cancers, hence it plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis. In mice, AKT1 is essential for normal development.
