Description_x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ AKT3 or Protein Kinase B g (PKBg) is a serine/threonine kinase that is a member of the AKT family. AKT3 is activated in cells exposed to diverse stimuli such as hormones, growth factors, and extracellular matrix components. AKT3 phosphorylates and regulates the function of many cellular proteins involved in processes that include cellular metabolism, survival/apoptosis, and proliferation. Recent evidence indicates that AKT3 is frequently overexpressed in many types of human cancers including breast and prostate._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Supplied in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, with 150 mM NaCl, 0.2 5mM DTT, 0.1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM PMSF, and 25% glycerol._x000D_ Legal Information_x000D_ PRECISIO is a registered trademark of Sigma-Aldrich Co.
