Anti-AKT pT308 (MOUSE) Monoclonal Antibody - - 100 µg

AKT1 pT308 antibody detects phosphorylated Akt. AKT is involved in cellular survival pathways, by inhibiting apoptotic processes. Akt is also able to induce protein synthesis pathways, and is therefore a key signaling protein in the cellular pathways that lead to skeletal muscle hypertrophy, and general tissue growth. AKT is a component of the PI-3 kinase pathway and is activated by phosphorylation at Ser 473 and Thr 308. AKT is a cytoplasmic protein with 3 isoforms known as AKT1, AKT2, AKT3. AKT is also known as protein Kinase B (PKB) and rac (related to A and C kinases). AKT is a key regulator of many signal transduction pathways. AKT Exhibits tight control over cell proliferation and cell viability. Overexpression or inappropriate activation of AKT is noted in many types of cancer. AKT mediates many of the downstream events of PI 3-kinase (a lipid kinase activated by growth factors, cytokines and insulin). PI 3-kinase recruits AKT to the membrane, where it is activated by P
