Catalytic Activity
ATP + L-seryl-[protein] = ADP + H(+) + O-phospho-L-seryl-[protein]ATP + L-threonyl-[protein] = ADP + H(+) + O-phospho-L-threonyl-[protein]
Function
Phosphorylates 'Ser-794' of IRS1 in insulin-stimulated adipocytes, potentially modulating the efficiency of insulin signal transduction. Inhibits CREB activity by phosphorylating and repressing TORCs, the CREB-specific coactivators.
