"Two phosphorylation events are necessary for maximal activation of Akt, namely phosphorylation at Thr308 and Ser473 in Akt1 (Thr309/Ser474 in Akt2 and Thr305/Ser472 in Akt3) by phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) and the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 2 (mTORC2), respectively [ xref , xref ]."

"Insulin binds to the insulin receptor (INS-R) to initiate the insulin pathway signaling cascade via insulin receptor substrate (IRS) and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase and serine/threonine protein kinase B (PKB/AKT), which is phosphorylated at serine 473 by the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex (mTORC) 2 (mTORC2), and activates an array of downstream targets including mTORC1 to initiate protein synthesis (5–11)."
