AKT3

AKT3, also known as Protein Kinase B (PKB) gamma, is a serine/threonine protein kinase that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including cell survival, proliferation, metabolism, and growth. It is a member of the AKT family of kinases, which also includes AKT1 and AKT2. One of the primary functions of AKT3 is its role in the regulation of cell survival and apoptosis. AKT3 is activated in response to growth factors, cytokines, and other extracellular signals that stimulate cell growth and survival. Upon activation, AKT3 phosphorylates downstream targets involved in apoptotic regulation, such as BAD and caspase-9, leading to their...
