InnateDB Annotation
Summary
AKT1 is a Ser/Thr protein kinase that plays a pivotal role in functional activation in macrophages. AKT1 specifically functions in phagocytosis, intracellular bacterial infection, LPS tolerance, production of inflammatory cytokines/mediators, and migration during macrophage-mediate innate immunity.
AKT1 activation is blocked by Bacillus anthracis, resulting in the opening of a connexin ATP release channel and induction of macrophage death. Constitutive activation of AKT1 interferes with inflammasome activation and IL1B production, which compromises antimicrobial immunity. (Demonstrated in murine model)
AKT1 functions downstream of TLR2-stimulation to induce the expression of the monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, CCL2. (Demonstrated in mice)
AKT1 is important for establishing the inflammatory microenvironment in the airway upon exposure to rhinovirus.

[Mus musculus] Akt1 is a Ser/Thr protein kinase that plays a pivotal role in functional activation in macrophages. Akt1 specifically functions in phagocytosis, intracellular bacterial infection, LPS tolerance, production of inflammatory cytokines/mediators, and migration during macrophage-mediate innate immunity.
[Mus musculus] Akt1 activation is blocked by Bacillus anthracis, resulting in the opening of a connexin ATP release channel and induction of macrophage death. Constitutive activation of Akt1 interferes with inflammasome activation and Il1b production, which compromises antimicrobial immunity.
[Mus musculus] Akt1 functions downstream of Tlr2-stimulation to induce the expression of the monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, Ccl2.
[Mus musculus] Lysophosphatidic acid plays an anti-inflammatory role in macrophages by diminishing lipopolysaccharide-induced phosphorylation of Mapk14 and Akt1, as well as Rela nuclear translocation.
[Mus musculus] The Akt1/Mir199a/Cav1 pathway is a regulator of innate immunity that is dysfunctional in cystic fibrosis macrophages contributing to lung hyper-inflammation.
Entrez Gene
Summary The serine-threonine protein kinase encoded by the AKT1 gene is catalytically inactive in serum-starved primary and immortalized fibroblasts. AKT1 and the related AKT2 are activated by platelet-derived growth factor. The activation is rapid and specific, and it is abrogated by mutations in the pleckstrin homology domain of AKT1. It was shown that the activation occurs through phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In the developing nervous system AKT is a critical mediator of growth factor-induced neuronal survival. Survival factors can suppress apoptosis in a transcription-independent manner by activating the serine/threonine kinase AKT1, which then phosphorylates and inactivates components of the apoptotic machinery. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the Proteus syndrome. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]
