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, and it is abrogated by mutations in the pleckstrin homology domain of AKT1. It was shown that the activation occurs through phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In the developing nervous system AKT is a critical mediator of growth factor-induced neuronal survival. Survival factors can suppress apoptosis in a transcription-independent manner by activating the serine/threonine kinase AKT1, which then phosphorylates and inactivates components of the apoptotic machinery. Mutations in AKT1 have been associated with the Proteus syndrome. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for AKT1.

AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT1), also known as protein kinase B alpha (PKB alpha), is a PI3K-regulated signalling kinase. This ABMIUM record links human AKT1 (NCBI Gene 207; UniProt P31749) to catalogue-backed research products.
Biological function: AKT1 is a serine/threonine kinase activated downstream of phosphoinositide 3-kinase signalling. It integrates growth-factor and receptor signals that regulate cell survival, proliferation, metabolism and angiogenic responses.
