PDK1 or PDPK1 is a 63kD monomeric protein which is also known as Akt kinase.
PDK1 is composed of a C-terminal PH (pleckstrin homology) domain and an N-terminal catalytic domain.
In response to insulin or insulin-like growth factor, PDK1 phosphorylates PKB/Akt1 on threonine 308 and serine 473 in a phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate or phosphatidylinositol 3,4-biphosphate-dependent manner.
Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate or phosphatidylinositol 3,4-biphosphate binds to the PH domains of PKB and PDK1 resulting in the translocation of these proteins to the cell membrane and activation of PKB.
PDK1 also phosphorylates the 70kD ribosomal protein S6 kinase at threonine 229, which is required for its activation.
Thus, PDK1 acts upstream of PKB and has been shown to control signals for proliferation and apoptosis.
