                                        Comment: This compound is a mixture of tautomers (KP372-1A and KP372-1B), present in almost equal amounts. Our image shows the structure of KP372-1B. 
                            
                            
                          
                                
                                    
                                
                          
                                   
                                   
                                  
                                    
                                    
                                    This compound has been shown to directly inhibit both PDK1 and Akt activities in in vitro kinase assays in a dose-dependent manner and block cellular phosphorylation of Akt at both Ser473 and Thr308 residues [6].  |
