| p-AKT

Akt, or protein kinase B, one of key proteins in the Akt/PI3K/PTEN signaling pathway, is a Serine/Threonine protein kinase that, once activated by phosphorylation, plays an important role in the process of malignant transformation. Phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) was implicated in inducing signals to interfere with the cell apoptosis, and promoting abilities of proliferation and motility through a crucial mechanism, the activation of mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin).
 

| Typical data

As the OD values of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique, wash technique or temperature effects), the operator should establish a standard curve for each test. Typical standard curve and data are provided below for reference only.

 

Concentration (pg/mL)	5000	2500	1250	625	312.5	156.25	78.12	0
OD	2.27	2.06	1.65	1.15	0.72	0.45	0.29	0.05
Corrected OD	2.22	2.01	1.6	1.1	0.67	0.4	0.24	-

 

| Repeatability

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 10%; Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)：CV% < 10%
 

| Recovery

The recovery of Human p-AKT spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

 

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Tissue Homogenates(n=8)	84-103	97
Cell Lysates(n=8)	92-105	102

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human p-AKT and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Tissue Homogenates(n=4)	Cell Lysates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	84-95	90-110
	Average (%)	91	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	105-115
	Average (%)	94	108
