    Glossary Protein Kinase B

    enzyme involved in cell growth, metabolism, and survival

    Protein Kinase B (PKB), also known as Akt, is a crucial enzyme in the body that plays a significant role in various cellular processes, including metabolism, cell proliferation, and survival. It is activated by signals from growth factors and other extracellular stimuli, and its dysregulation is often associated with diseases such as cancer and diabetes.
