AKT3 is one of 3 closely related serine/threonine-protein kinases (AKT1, AKT2 and AKT3) called the AKT kinase, and which regulate many processes including metabolism, proliferation, cell survival, growth and angiogenesis. This is mediated through serine and/or threonine phosphorylation of a range of downstream substrates. Over 100 substrate candidates have been reported so far, but for most of them, no isoform specificity has been reported. AKT3 is the least studied AKT isoform. It plays an important role in brain development and is crucial for the viability of malignant glioma cells. AKT3 isoform may also be the key molecule in up-regulation and down-regulation of MMP13 via IL13. Required for the coordination of mitochondrial biogenesis with growth factor-induced increases in cellular energy demands. Down-regulation by RNA interference reduces the expression of the phosphorylated form of BAD, resulting in the induction of caspase-dependent apoptosis.

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. RAC subfamily.
Phosphorylation on Thr-305 and Ser-472 is required for full activity.
Recombinant full-length human AKT3 was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 cells using an N-terminal GST tag.
AKT3 also known as protein kinase B gamma plays an important role in various cellular processes. This serine/threonine kinase with a molecular mass of approximately 56 kDa functions as part of the AKT family which includes AKT1 and AKT2. AKT3 expresses highly in the brain tissues with significant expression also observed in the heart and kidneys. As an isoform of the AKT kinase it participates in signaling pathways essential for cell survival and metabolism.
AKT3 participates in regulating cell proliferation and survival. It operates as part of the PI3K/AKT signaling complex a central hub for signaling growth factors. This pathway is critical for transmitting signals from the cell surface to the nucleus affecting transcription and cell cycle progression. AKT3 protein specifically contributes significant roles in neuronal development and function due to its high expression within the nervous system.
AKT3 influences the PI3K/AKT and mTOR pathways. These pathways regulate cell growth metabolism and survival playing significant roles in normal cellular functions and cancer. AKT3 interacts closely with other signaling molecules including mTORC1 and mTORC2 complexes. While participating in these pathways AKT3 coordinates with the protein E17K which is pattern related with alterations leading to abnormal signaling and growth.
AKT3 is implicated in cancer and neurological disorders. Aberrations in its signaling can lead to tumorigenesis as seen in glioblastomas. Abnormal AKT3 activity associates with epilepsy and other neurodevelopmental disorders emphasizing its impact on neuronal functions. Connecting AKT3 with disorders the protein E17K mutation in AKT3 dysregulates normal kinase activity contributing to these pathologies.
