(b) PI3-kinase activity causes the localization of Akt to the plasma membrane, where it is phosphorylated by another protein kinase. The RTK is activated before PI3-kinase is activated choice (a). PI3-kinase phosphorylates lipids, not proteins such as Akt choice (c). DAG is created by phospholipase C and is not involved in this particular signaling pathway choice (d).
