Application
Pit-1 may be used in PIP3-mediated cell signaling studies.
Biochem/physiol Actions
PIT-1 is a PIP3-PH domain antagonist
PIT-1 represents a new class of molecules referred to as PITenins, or PITs. PITs inhibit the binding of PIP3 to the PH domains of several target proteins, including Akt and PDK1, without affecting interactions against PIP2-selective PH domains. PIT-1 inhibits PI3K-PKD-1-Akt dependent phosphorylation in cell based assays, including the phosphorylation of Akt-1, 2 and 3.
Pit-1 is a small-molecule phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) antagonist that binds and blocks the pleckstrin domain. It shows inhibitory effects on tumor angiogenesis and metastasis by interfering with the activation of Akt.
