Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
S74A the mutation abrogates phosphorylation of the protein. The ratio of phospho-Akt/Akt, phospho-mTOR/mTOR, phospho-P70S6K/P70S6K does not significantly decrease in mutant cells following ionizing radiation treatment Homo sapiens
S74E the mutation mimics phosphorylation of the protein. The ratio of phospho-Akt/Akt, phospho-mTOR/mTOR, phospho-P70S6K/P70S6K significantly decreases in mutant cells following ionizing radiation treatment Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the phosphorylated and activated enzyme can inhibit ionizing radiation-induced cell death including apoptosis and mitotic catastrophe, and promote ionizing radiation-induced autophagy through PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. The enzyme is required for the G2/M cell cycle checkpoint and to protect cells against mitotic catastrophe Homo sapiens
