AKT1E17K activates focal adhesion kinase and promotes melanoma brain metastasis

ABSTRACT: Goal: Comparison of protein and phospho-protein levels in primary tumors based on activation of different AKT paralogs Methods: RPPA performed at the MD Anderson RPPA Core Facility. Detailed procedures available in methods section. Results: Focus of study compared protein and phospho-protein levels of BRAFV600E;Cdkn2a-/-;Pten-/- and BRAFV600E;Cdkn2a-/-;Pten-/-;AKT1E17K cohorts. P-FAK and paxillin were upregulated in tumors that express AKT1E17K compared with controls Conclusion: AKT1E17K has a critical role in upregulating P-FAK and paxillin
