Members of Akt family are highly conserved protein kinase and yet, they show clearly distinct in vivo functions. Here, we have examined the abilities of Akt1 and Akt2 to activate CREB. We found that, in contrast to Akt1 that induces CREB phosphorylation at Ser-133 and CREB target gene expression, Akt2 was unable to induce CREB phosphorylation at Ser-133 in vivo and CREB target gene expression. This difference is specific to CREB as both Akt1. and Akt2 similarly inhibits FoxO1 mediated gene expression. We further showed that the regulatory domain of Akt plays a critical role to confer Akt substrate specificity as substitution of regulatory domain of AktI with that of Akt2 abolished the ability of Akt1 to activate CREB. We suggest that the regulatory domain of Akts contributes to the functional difference between Akt1 and Akt2. (c) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
