This gene is a putative oncogene encoding a protein belonging to a subfamily of serine/threonine kinases containing SH2-like (Src homology 2-like) domains. The gene was shown to be amplified and overexpressed in 2 of 8 ovarian carcinoma cell lines and 2 of 15 primary ovarian tumors. Overexpression contributes to the malignant phenotype of a subset of human ductal pancreatic cancers. The encoded protein is a general protein kinase capable of phophorylating several known proteins

Description
Specificity: Not tested with other proteinsRelevance: The serine/threonine kinase Akt (protein kinase B or PKB) has a central role in the regulation of several signaling pathways controlling cell survival and proliferation. Currently, three mammalian isoforms (Akt1/PKBalpha Akt2/PKBbeta, and Akt3/PKBgamma) of the kinase have been identified. AKT2 is a putative oncogene and is a general protein kinase capable of phophorylating several known proteins. AKT2 is amplified and overexpressed in some human carcinomas
