Control Lysate (NIH3T3 cells were grown in a T175 flask at 37 degree C, 5%CO2, in DMEM with 10% BCS and cultured to 90% confluence. The medium was removed and cells were stimulated with 3 nM of PDGF AA for 15 min. The medium was removed and cells were lysed with 4 mL of 1X Lysis Buffer #1 containing 1 mM NaF and 2 mM Na3VO4, on an orbital shaker (400 rpm) for 30 min at room temperature. Soluble supernatants were collected after a 10 min centrifugation and tested using the two-plate assay protocol.)

Testing Data

(NIH3T3 cells were seeded at 30,000 cells/well and cultured 48 h at 37 degree C, 5% CO2, in DMEM with 10% BCS. Cells were then treated with either PDGF AA for 15 min (stimulation) or with wortmannin for 30 min then PDGF AA (inhibition). The media was removed from the wells, and cells were lysed with 50 uL/well of 1X Lysis Buffer #1 containing 1 mM NaF and 2 mM Na3VO4, on an orbital shaker (400 rpm) for 30 min at room temperature. The lysates were then analyzed for phospho-AKT pan (S473) using the two-plate assay protocol. The TR-FRET signal was recorded at 665 and 615 nm (EnVision lamp excitation) after a 2 h incubation period at room temperature.)

Related Product Information for AKT assay kit
Principle of the Assay: The Phospho-AKT pan (S473) assay kit is a homogeneous time-resolved Förster resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) sandwich immunoassay (Figure 1). The THUNDER™ Cell Signaling assay workflow consists of 3 steps (Figure 2). Following cell treatment, cells are first lysed with the specific Lysis Buffer provided in the kit. Then Phospho-AKT pan (S473) in the cell lysates is detected with a pair of fluorophore-labeled antibodies in a simple "add-incubate-measure" format (single-step reagent addition; no wash steps). One antibody is labeled with a donor fluorophore (Europium chelate; Eu-Ab1) and the second with a far-red acceptor fluorophore (FR-Ab2). The binding of the two labeled antibodies to distinct epitopes on the target protein takes place in solution and brings the two dyes into close proximity. Excitation of the donor Europium chelate molecules with a flash lamp (320 or 340 nm) or a laser (337 nm) triggers a FRET from the donor to the acceptor molecules, which in turn emit a TR-FRET signal at 665 nm. Residual energy from the Eu chelate generates light at 615 nm. The signal at 665 nm is proportional to the concentration of Phospho-AKT pan (S473) in the cell lysate. Data can be expressed as either the signal at 665 nm or the 665 nm/615 nm ratio.

NCBI Description

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]

Uniprot Description

Akt1: an oncogenic AGC kinase that plays a critical role in regulating cell survival and metabolism in many different signaling pathways. Dual phosphorylation is required for its activation. T308 is phosphorylated by PDK1 in the PI3 kinase pathway, and S473 is phosphorylated by mTOR in the mTORC2 pathway. The 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination of AKT1 by TRAF6 is important for its translocation to the plasma membrane, phosphorylation, and activation. When Akt is fully phosphorylated it translocates into the nucleus, undergoes 'Lys-48'-polyubiquitination catalyzed by TTC3, leading to its proteosomal degradation. Hyperactive or overexpressed in a number of cancers including breast, prostate, lung, pancreatic, liver, ovarian and colorectal. Over 160 protein substrates are known including many that regulate transcription, metabolism, apoptosis, cell cycle, and growth.

Product Notes

The Human, Mouse AKT akt1 (Catalog #AAA298004) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA298004 Assay Kit recognizes Human, Mouse AKT. AAA Biotech's AKT pan can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Cell-Based Assays. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the AKT akt1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "AKT pan, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
