Akt Substrates

Santa Cruz Biotechnology now offers a broad range of Akt Substrates for use in various applications. Akt Substrates are critical in scientific research, particularly in the study of cell signaling pathways that govern essential processes such as growth, survival, and metabolism. Akt, also known as protein kinase B, is a central player in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which is activated by various growth factors and hormones. This pathway regulates numerous cellular functions by phosphorylating a variety of substrates, thereby influencing their activity, stability, and localization. The availability of specific Akt Substrates allows researchers to investigate the downstream effects of Akt activation and to map out the complex network of interactions within the cell. In the scientific community, Akt Substrates are invaluable tools for exploring how cells respond to external signals and how dysregulation of this pathway can lead to diseases such as cancer and metabolic disorders. By using these substrates, scientists can dissect the molecular mechanisms by which Akt controls processes like protein synthesis, glucose metabolism, and cell cycle progression. The ability to study these substrates in various experimental systems, including in vitro biochemical assays and in vivo models, provides a deeper understanding of how the Akt pathway integrates signals to maintain cellular homeostasis. This research is crucial for advancing knowledge in cell biology, molecular biology, and biochemistry, offering insights that can lead to the development of new experimental approaches and technologies.
