Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; protein kinase C binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in positive regulation of angiogenesis and positive regulation of artery morphogenesis. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including brain morphogenesis; positive regulation of TOR signaling; and positive regulation of cell size. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; gut; integumental system; nervous system; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colon cancer; glioblastoma; prostate adenocarcinoma; prostate cancer; and renal cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human AKT3 (AKT serine/threonine kinase 3).
