A schematic model of YY1-promoted AKT phosphorylation. YY1 binds AKT PH domain and imposes its conformational change to expose S473, which allows mTORC2 access to phosphorylate S473. This phosphorylation stabilizes the conformation leading to T308 phosphorylation and consequently full AKT activation.
