Akt1 (RAC-alpha Serine/Threonine-protein Kinase, Protein Kinase B, PKB, Protein Kinase B alpha, PKB alpha, Proto-oncogene c-Akt, RAC-PK-alpha, PKB, RAC)

Akt, also known as protein kinase B (PKB), is a central kinase in such diverse cellular processes as glucose uptake, cell cycle progression, and apoptosis. Three highly homologous members define the Akt family: Akt1 (PKBA), Akt2 (PKBB), and Akt3 (PKBG). All three Akts contain an amino-terminal pleckstrin homology domain, a central kinase domain, and a carboxyl-terminal regulatory domain. Akt1 is the most widely expressed family member and is frequently activated in a number of carcinomas, including breast, prostate, lung, pancreatic, liver, ovarian, and colorectal cancer. Akt1 is activated in a multistep process that involves the sequential phosphorylation of aa450 by JNK kinases, aa308 by PDK1, and aa473 by PDK2 or mTORC2. Activated Akt1 phosphorylates a wide variety of cytosolic, nuclear, and mitochondrial substrates. Substitution of glutamic acid with lysine at aa17 (E17K) occurs in multiple malignancies and results in constitutive Akt1 activation and cell transformation. Within aa5-30, human Akt1 shares 100% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Akt1.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in Western Blot and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nWestern Blot: 0.5ug/ml\nImmunocytochemistry: 8-25ug/ml\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nLyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C. Stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
