EEF2K AS MODIFIERS OF THE PTEN/AKT PATHWAY AND METHODS OF USE

摘要

Human EEF2K genes are identified as modulators of the PTEN/AKT pathway and thus are therapeutic targets for disorders associated with defective PTEN/AKT function. Methods for identifying modulators of PTEN/AKT comprising screening for agents that modulate the activity of EEF2K are provided.
