Function
AKT serine/threonine kinase 3 (AKT3) is a PI3K-AKT pathway effector that regulates cellular growth, survival, and neurodevelopment, with particularly high expression in the central nervous system[1][2]. Mechanistically, AKT3 contributes to mTOR signaling and postnatal brain growth by controlling both cell size and cell number, and Akt3-deficient mice display selective reductions in brain volume without major disturbances in glucose homeostasis[1][3]. In disease models, somatic activating mutations and copy-number alterations of AKT3 are associated with megalencephaly-spectrum neurodevelopmental disorders and hemispheric brain overgrowth, supporting a central role for AKT3 during cortical development and neural progenitor regulation[4]. Compared with related isoforms, AKT1 primarily regulates organismal growth, whereas AKT2 is closely linked to insulin-responsive metabolic tissues; in contrast, AKT3 shows brain-enriched expression and mediates isoform-specific control of neural growth and signaling outputs[1][2][3]. Beyond developmental biology, genomically amplified AKT3 promotes glioma progression and activates DNA repair programs, identifying AKT3 as a functionally dominant AKT isoform in specific brain tumor contexts[5]. For experimental applications, recent medicinal chemistry efforts have produced isoform-selective AKT3 degraders that induce proteasomal degradation of AKT3 and suppress growth of resistant cancer models, providing tools for dissecting AKT3-specific signaling and therapeutic vulnerabilities[6].

Expression
Tissue_specificity:In human tissues, this gene is highly expressed in the brain, lungs, and kidneys, but lowly expressed in the heart, testes, and liver. In fetal tissues, this gene is highly expressed in the heart, liver, and brain, but not in the kidneys. -
Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification
Q9Y243 has 2 isomers: Q9Y243-1: 55775 Da (predicted); Q9Y243-2: 54032 Da (predicted).
Phosphorylation on Thr-305 and Ser-472 is required for full activity (PubMed:12162751, PubMed:9512493). Phosphorylation of the activation loop at Thr-305 by PDPK1/PDK1 is a prerequisite for full activation (PubMed:9512493). Phosphorylation at Ser-472 by mTORC2 in response to growth factors plays a key role in AKT1 activation by facilitating subsequent phosphorylation of the activation loop by PDPK1/PDK1 (By similarity);Ubiquitinated. When fully phosphorylated and translocated into the nucleus, undergoes 'Lys-48'-polyubiquitination catalyzed by TTC3, leading to its degradation by the proteasome;O-GlcNAcylation at Thr-302 and Thr-309 inhibits activating phosphorylation at Thr-305 via disrupting the interaction between AKT and PDPK1/PDK1 -
Subunit
Interacts (via PH domain) with TCL1A; this enhances AKT3 phosphorylation and activation. Interacts with TRAF6.
