Abstract excerpt
The serine-threonine protein kinase Akt is a direct downstream target of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K). The PI3-K-generated phospholipids regulate Akt activity via directly binding to the Akt PH domain. The binding of PI3-K-generated phospholipids is critical to the relocalization of Akt to the plasma membrane, which plays an important role in the process of Akt activation. Activation of the PI3-K/Akt...
