AKT1S1 and B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia: With overexpression of these AKT/mTOR-related signaling proteins, we also observed higher phosphoprotein levels for PDK1 at serine 241, 4E-BP1 at serine 65 and threonine 70, p70S6K at threonine 389, BAD at serine 112, and PRAS40 at threonine 246 in CLL samples as compared to normal donors (Figure 2A).
