RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase (UniProt: P31749; also known as EC:2.7.11.1, Protein kinase B, PKB, Protein kinase B alpha, PKB alpha, Proto-oncogene c-Akt, RAC-PK-alpha, Akt) is encoded by the AKT1 (also known as PKB, RAC) gene (Gene ID: 207) in human. Akt, a serine/threonine kinase, is a critical enzyme in several signal transduction pathways involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and diabetes. In mammals three isoforms of Akt have been reported (Akt 1, 2, 3) that exhibit a high degree of homology, but differ slightly in the localization of their regulatory phosphorylation sites. Akt1 plays an important role in growth and anti-apoptosis; Akt2 acts primarily as a regulator of glucose metabolism. Although Akt3 does not contribute significantly to the maintenance of normal metabolism in tissues but is essential for the attainment of normal organ size, probably influencing both cell size and number via mTOR activation. Each Akt isoform is composed of three functionally distinct regions: An N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain that provides a lipid-binding module to direct Akt to PIP2 and PIP3, a central catalytic domain, and a C-terminal hydrophobic motif. Activation of Akt involves growth factor binding to a receptor tyrosine kinase and activation of PI 3-kinase that phosphorylates membrane bound PIP2 to generate PIP3. The binding of PIP3 to the PH domain anchors Akt to the plasma membrane. Akt is activated following its phosphorylation at Thr308 on the kinase domain by PDK1 and on Ser473 on the hydrophobic motif by mTORC2. The principal role of Akt is to facilitate growth factor-mediated cell survival and to block apoptotic cell death. Akt achieves this by phosphorylating a variety of substrates, such as Bad, caspase-9, Forkhead transcription factors, and GSK-3. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

ZooMAb antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.

Each ZooMAb antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.
