Supplementary information

AKT1 also known as Protein Kinase B (PKB) is a serine/threonine kinase involved in various cellular processes. AKT1 plays an important role in mediating signals for cell survival growth and metabolism. This protein has a molecular weight of approximately 56 kDa. AKT1 is ubiquitously expressed in many tissues including the brain heart and lungs showing its importance in multiple physiological contexts. Phosphorylation of AKT1 at serine 473 denoted as p-AKT S473 is an important modification that regulates its activity.
Biological function summary

AKT1 regulates a broad spectrum of cellular functions through signaling pathways. It is an important player in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and AKT pathway forming part of a complex involved in promoting cell survival and growth. AKT1 interacts closely with other proteins such as mTOR influencing cellular metabolism and autophagy. The phosphorylation state of AKT1 is critical for its activity with modifications like p-AKT S473 impacting its interaction with cellular substrates.

Pathways

AKT1 participates in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling cascade instrumental in cell proliferation and metabolism. AKT1 integrates signals from insulin and growth factors modulating pathways that control cell growth and glucose uptake. This pathway involves proteins like mTOR and phospho-AKT which coordinate cellular responses to external stimuli. AKT1’s phosphorylation at serine 473 and the involvement of AKT1 E17K a gain-of-function mutation influence these pathways significantly.

AKT1 has associations with cancer and metabolic disorders. Dysregulation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway involving AKT1 and mTOR often results in oncogenic transformation and uncontrolled cellular proliferation. In cancer such as breast cancer AKT1 mutations including AKT1 E17K are implicated altering cell signals for growth. Additionally AKT1 is connected to metabolic disorders such as Type 2 diabetes where it affects insulin signaling and glucose metabolism highlighting its interaction with metabolic proteins like mTOR and phospho-AKT.

Serine/threonine kinase involved in various developmental processes (PubMed : 10587646, PubMed : 10962553, PubMed : 11740943, PubMed : 11872800, PubMed : 12172554, PubMed : 12893776, PubMed : 14525946, PubMed : 15466161, PubMed : 15712201, PubMed : 9601646). During early embryogenesis, acts as a survival protein (PubMed : 10962553, PubMed : 9601646). During mid-embryogenesis, phosphorylates and activates trh, a transcription factor required for tracheal cell fate determination (PubMed : 11740943). Also regulates tracheal cell migration (PubMed : 11740943, PubMed : 14525946). Later in development, acts downstream of PI3K and Pk61C/PDK1 in the insulin receptor transduction pathway which regulates cell growth and organ size, by phosphorylating and antagonizing FOXO transcription factor (PubMed : 10587646, PubMed : 10962553, PubMed : 11752451, PubMed : 12893776, PubMed : 24603715, PubMed : 25329475, PubMed : 29025897). Controls follicle cell size during oogenesis (PubMed : 15712201). May also stimulate cell growth by phosphorylating Gig/Tsc2 and inactivating the Tsc complex (PubMed : 12172554, PubMed : 15466161). Dephosphorylation of 'Ser-586' by Phlpp triggers apoptosis and suppression of tumor growth (PubMed : 10962553).
