Functions

Akt activator. Binds to the pleckstrin homology domain of Akt preventing membrane translocation but paradoxically activating it in the cytosol. Enhances Akt phosphorylation by upstream protein kinases. Suppresses excitotoxicity-induced neuronal death in vitro and in vivo. A useful tool for studying the PI3K/Akt axis.

Application Procedures

First dissolved in DMSO (up to 100 mg/ml) or in Ethanol (up to 40 mg/ml with warming), then diluted to aqueous buffer. Solutions in DMSO or ethanol may be stored at -20° for up to 2 months.
