Description: Akt1/PKBa is a Ser/Thr protein kinase whose kinase activity plays a key role in various cellular functions, including apoptosis, glycogen synthesis, and cell growth . Akt1/PKBa is activated by various growth and survival factors (1). Phosphorylation on Thr308, Ser473 and Tyr474 is required for full activity. Akt1/PKBa inhibits apoptosis by phosphorylating and inactivating several targets, including caspase-9 (2). Akt1/PKBa regulates glycogen synthesis by phosphorylating and inactivating glycogen synthase kinase-3a and b (3,4). Three mammalian Akt1/PKBa isoforms have been identified.

Specificity: A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding ATP binding site of human Akt1 was used as immunogen. Predicted to cross-react with mouse, rat and bovine, based on sequence homology.

Recommended Dilutions:
WB: 1:1,000
