Regulation Akt/PKB signaling pathway



examples of feedback control in pi3k-akt pathway


the pi3k-akt pathway has many downstream effects , must regulated. 1 of ways pathway negatively regulated reducing pip3 levels. phosphatase , tensin homolog (pten) antagonises pi3k converting pi(3,4,5)p3 pi(4,5)p2. loss of pten function leads over-activation of akt , common in cancer cells (pten tumour suppressor). sh2-containing inositol phosphatase (ship) dephosphorylates pi(3,4,5)p3, @ 5 position of inositol ring. pi3k-akt pathway regulates pten levels affecting transcription , activity. transcription factor nf-κb, activated akt, regulates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (pparβ/δ) agonists , tumour necrosis factor α (tnfα), in turn repress pten expression. nedd4-1, e3 ligase recognises pten degradation up-regulated pi3k pathway. therefore, when akt activated, pten further repressed in positive feedback loop.


the pathway controlled protein phosphatase 2a (pp2a), dephosphorylates akt @ thr308 , phosphatase phlpp dephosphorylates akt @ ser473. protein important in akt attenuation carboxy terminal modulator protein (ctmp). ctmp binds regulatory domain of akt, blocking phosphorylation , activation.


when pathway activated insulin, insulin receptor substrate 1 (irs-1) transcription down-regulated, in negative feedback loop via mtorc1 , s6k1 activation. s6k1 able phosphorylate irs-1 @ multiple serine residues, preventing binding rtks. negative feedback control mechanism regulating pathway involves foxo transcription factors. activated akt causes foxo degradation, can no longer inhibit pp2a, leading decrease in akt phosphorylation.
