Product details:
Although we aim to provide customers with a homozygous clone, feasibility will be dependent on the biology of the protein. Should only heterozygous edits be achieved, you will be notified of the outcome and be asked to confirm whether the cell line is acceptable. All clones will be accompanied with DNA sequencing data, and the mutation description.
Recommended control
: Human wild-type A549 cell line (ab288558). Please note a wild-type cell line is not automatically included with a knockout cell line order, if required please add recommended wild-type cell line at no additional cost using the code WILDTYPE-TMTK1.
We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

AKT3 also known as protein kinase B gamma plays an important role in various cellular processes. This serine/threonine kinase with a molecular mass of approximately 56 kDa functions as part of the AKT family which includes AKT1 and AKT2. AKT3 expresses highly in the brain tissues with significant expression also observed in the heart and kidneys. As an isoform of the AKT kinase it participates in signaling pathways essential for cell survival and metabolism.
Biological function summary
AKT3 participates in regulating cell proliferation and survival. It operates as part of the PI3K/AKT signaling complex a central hub for signaling growth factors. This pathway is critical for transmitting signals from the cell surface to the nucleus affecting transcription and cell cycle progression. AKT3 protein specifically contributes significant roles in neuronal development and function due to its high expression within the nervous system.
Pathways
AKT3 influences the PI3K/AKT and mTOR pathways. These pathways regulate cell growth metabolism and survival playing significant roles in normal cellular functions and cancer. AKT3 interacts closely with other signaling molecules including mTORC1 and mTORC2 complexes. While participating in these pathways AKT3 coordinates with the protein E17K which is pattern related with alterations leading to abnormal signaling and growth.
AKT3 is implicated in cancer and neurological disorders. Aberrations in its signaling can lead to tumorigenesis as seen in glioblastomas. Abnormal AKT3 activity associates with epilepsy and other neurodevelopmental disorders emphasizing its impact on neuronal functions. Connecting AKT3 with disorders the protein E17K mutation in AKT3 dysregulates normal kinase activity contributing to these pathologies.
