Figure 6. A diagram represents the regulation of MST2 by IGF1/Akt signal.

Figure 6

Under stress conditions, MST2 is activated through caspase-3 cleavage and autophosphorylation-Thr180. The activated/cleaved MST2 translocates to the nucleus and promotes apoptosis. IGF1/Akt inhibits these processes through phosphorylation of MST2-T117.
