"Mammalian TOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTORC2 exert their actions by regulating other important kinases, such as S6 kinase (S6K) and Akt.Recent findings have revealed novel important roles for mTORC2 in the phosphorylation of AGC kinase family members. mTORC2 phosphorylates and activates Akt, SGK, and PKC, which regulate cell survival, cell cycle progression and anabolism"
"Here, we identify PP1 as a serine/threonine phosphatase that associates with and dephosphorylates AKT in breast cancer cells|The heat shock protein 90 inhibitor geldanamycin and the ErbB inhibitor ZD1839 promote rapid PP1 phosphatase-dependent inactivation of AKT in ErbB2 overexpressing breast cancer cells"
"Reduction in the levels of both LMW-PTP isoforms in vitro and in vivo increased tyrosine phosphorylation of IR and AktSer473 and increased IRS-1- and IRS-2-associated PI3-K activities in both liver and fat.|Activated PI3-K stimulates Akt (or protein kinase B) that in turn phosphorylates and inactivates glycogen synthase kinase-3"
"Protein kinase B (PKB, Akt) is a Ser/Thr kinase involved in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation, and metabolism and is activated by dual phosphorylation on Thr(308) in the activation loop and Ser(473) in the hydrophobic motif. It plays a contributory role to platelet function, although little is known about its regulation. In this study, we investigated the role of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex (mTORC)-2 in Akt regulation using the recently identified small molecule ATP competitive mTOR inhibitors PP242 and Torin1."
"The Abl kinase inhibitors and depletion of Bcr-Abl induced the expression of PHLPP1 and PHLPP2, which dephosphorylated Ser-473 on Akt1, -2, and -3, resulting in inhibited proliferation of CML cells.|Thus, Bcr-Abl represses the expression of PHLPP1 and PHLPP2 and continuously activates Akt1, -2, and -3 via phosphorylation on Ser-473, resulting in the proliferation of CML cells."
"PIP3 recruits PDK1 and AKT to the plasma membrane, where PDK1 phosphorylates AKT on Thr308 in the activation loop of the kinase domain. The phosphorylation of AKT on Ser473 by PDK2 acts as a gain control for AKT and regulates its degree of activation. The sirolimus-insensitive mTORC2 complex exhibits PDK2 activity"
"Here, we identify a protein phosphatase, ph domain leucine-rich repeat protein phosphatase (phlpp), that specifically dephosphorylates the hydrophobic motif of akt (ser473 in akt1), triggering apoptosis and suppressing tumor growth.[...] These data are consistent with phlpp terminating akt signaling by directly dephosphorylating and inactivating akt."

"Overexpression of BTBD10 increased phosphorylation levels of Akts at both Thr(308) and Ser(473) while the reduction of the endogenous BTBD10 level resulted in a decrease in the phosphorylation levels of Akts. In vitro analysis indicated that BTBD10 bound to protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) and inhibited dephosphorylation of Akts by PP2A."
