Akt stimulates the transactivation potential of the RelA/p65 Subunit of NF-kappa B through utilization of the Ikappa B kinase and activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase p38.

Abstract excerpt

The serine/threonine kinase Akt/PKB is a potent regulator of cell survival and has oncogenic transformation potential. Previously, it has been shown that Akt can activate the transcription factor NF-kappaB and that this functions to block apoptosis induced by certain stimuli. The mechanism whereb...
