2. Vav1, ectopically expressed in invasive breast tumors derived cells, downmodulates Akt acting at expression and/or activation levels depending on tumor subtype.

4. miR6255p may protect LPSinduced HBECs by targeting AKT2 and inhibiting the nuclear factorkappaB signaling pathway. Therefore, miR6255p may function as an inhibitor of asthma airway inflammation in HBECs by targeting AKT2.

5. MiR-92a inhibits fibroblast-like synoviocyte proliferation and migration in rheumatoid arthritis by targeting AKT2.

11. Data found that S131 of Akt2 is not phosphorylated by CK2 although the consensus sequence recognized by CK2 (S/T-x-x-E/D/pS/pT) is conserved. A single sequence element, a T at position n+1, hampers phosphorylation, causing an alpha-helix structure preventing the recognition of its own consensus by CK2. Using synthetic peptides, study suggests that Akt2 S131 could be phosphorylated by kinases of the Plk family.
