Cell localization:Cytoplasm.ribosomal protein S6 kinase B1(RPS6KB1) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the ribosomal S6 kinase family of serine/threonine kinases. The encoded protein responds to mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) signaling to promote protein synthesis, cell growth, and cell proliferation. Activity of this gene has been associated with human cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed. The use of alternative translation start sites resµLts in isoforms with longer or shorter N-termini which may differ in their subcellµLar localizations. There are two pseudogenes for this gene on chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013],
