Recombinant Mouse Akt2 Protein, MYC/DDK-tagged

• Cat.No.: Akt2-567M
• Product Overview: Purified recombinant protein of full-length mouse thymoma viral proto-oncogene 2 (Akt2), with C-terminal MYC/DDK tag, expressed in HEK293T cells.

Specification

• Species: Mouse
• Source: HEK293
• Tag: DDK&Myc
• Description: One of the few specific substrates of AKT2 identified so far is PITX2. Phosphorylation of PITX2 impairs its association with the CCND1 mRNA-stabilizing complex thus shortening the half-life of CCND1. AKT2 seems also to be the principal isoform responsible of the regulation of glucose uptake. Phosphorylates C2CD5 on 'Ser-197' during insulin-stimulated adipocytes. AKT2 is also specifically involved in skeletal muscle differentiation, one of its substrates in this process being ANKRD2. Phosphorylates CLK2 on 'Thr-343'.
