Crystal structure of human AKT1 with an allosteric inhibitor reveals a new mode of kinase inhibition.
AKT1 (NP_005154.2) is a member of the serine/threonine AGC protein kinase family involved in cellular metabolism, growth, proliferation and survival. The three human AKT isozymes are highly homologous multi-domain proteins with both overlapping and distinct cellular functions. Dysregulation of the A...
