Synthesized phospho-peptide around the phosphorylation site of human Akt (phospho Thr308)
Alternative Names:
AKT1, PKB, RAC, RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase, Protein kinase B, PKB, Protein kinase B alpha, PKB alpha, Proto-oncogene c-Akt, RAC-PK-alpha, AKT2, RAC-beta serine/threonine-protein kinase, Protein kinase Akt-2, Protein kinase B
The serine-threonine protein kinase encoded by the AKT1 gene is catalytically inactive in serum-starved primary and immortalized fibroblasts. AKT1 and the related AKT2 are activated by platelet-derived growth factor. The activation is rapid and specific,
