AKT Interacting Protein (AKTIP) Antibody (HRP)

Background

AKT Interacting Protein (AKTIP) is a multifunctional protein that plays a role in the regulation of cellular proliferation, survival, and DNA repair by interacting with AKT, a serine/threonine kinase involved in key signaling pathways. AKTIP is implicated in the maintenance of telomere integrity and genomic stability by facilitating telomere replication and protecting telomeres from damage. It also functions in vesicular trafficking and lipid metabolism, linking it to processes such as endosome dynamics and cellular energy homeostasis. Dysregulation of AKTIP is associated with genomic instability, which can lead to cancer progression and age-related diseases. AKTIP is also being studied for its role in insulin signaling and metabolic disorders due to its interaction with the AKT pathway. Research into AKTIP continues to uncover its broader implications in cellular signaling and its potential as a therapeutic target in cancer and metabolic dysfunction.
