Heterogeneous kinetics of AKT signaling in individual cells are accounted for by variable protein concentration

In most solid cancers, cells harboring oncogenic mutations represent only a sub-fraction of the entire population. Within this sub-fraction the expression level of mutated proteins can vary significantly due to cellular variability limiting the efficiency of targeted therapy. To address the causes o...
