Cancer associated E17K mutation causes rapid conformational drift in AKT1 pleckstrin homology (PH) domain.

BACKGROUND: AKT1 (v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homologue 1) kinase is one of the most frequently activated proliferated and survival pathway of cancer. Recently it has been shown that E17K mutation in the Pleckstrin Homology (PH) domain of AKT1 protein leads to cancer by amplifying the phosph...
