摘要
Since its discovery 10 years ago, the potential functions of protein kinase B (PKB)/AKT have been catalogued with increasing efficiency. The physiological relevance of some of the proposed mechanisms by which PKB/AKT mediates many of its effects has been questioned, and recent work using new reagents and approaches has revealed some cracks in our understanding of this important molecule, and also hinted that these effects may involve other players.
