General Information Comment Organism
physiological function GalT-deficient mice exhibit a subfertility phenotype in adult females and growth restriction in both sexes. The growth potential and the protein levels of the Akt(Thr308), Akt(Ser473), pan-Akt, Pdk1, and Hsp90 proteins are significantly reduced by 62.5%, 60.3%, 66%, 66%, and 50%, respectively in GalT-deficient primary fibroblast cells. Reduced expression of phosphorylated Akt proteins in the mutant cells leads to diminished phosphorylation of Gsk-3b (-74%). Protein expression of BiP and pPten are 276% and 176% higher, respectively in cells with GalT-deficiency. The mRNA abundance of Akt1, Pdpk1, Hsp90aa1 and Pi3kca genes are significantly reduced at least 2.03-, 1.37-, 2.45-, and 1.78fold, respectively in mutant fibroblasts. Both serum-fasted normal and GalT-deficient cells respond to Igf-1-induced activation of Akt phosphorylation at +15 min, but the mutant cells have lower phosphorylation levels. The steady-state protein abundance of Igf-1 receptor is also significantly reduced in mutant cells Mus musculus
